DATE: AUGUST 15TH - AUGUST 17TH.
OBJECTIVE: WRITE, SHOOT, EDIT AND PRESENT A FILM NO LONGER THAN 7 MINUTES WITHIN 48 HOURS UNDER THE CONTESTS RESTRICTIONS.
I did this last year and it was a blast. We get the prompts for what we have to include in our film.
Each team is given a list of 4 or 5 different prompts and the genre of the film they have to make. The prompts vary every year but it can be from anything to a character's name and occupation, a single line of dialogue, a prop, and so on. Last year our genre was "Superhero".
In about 3 hours we receive the prompts for this year's competition and we begin writing the script.
Wish us luck.
