48 hour film festival



I, Laura, participated in a 48 hour film making festival this weekend, invited to one of the teams by my friend Kristen. Basically, at the beginning you get a genre (ours was "coming of age"), a prop, a character, and a line of dialogue to use, then you have 48 hours to write, act, shoot, and edit the movie. It was tons of fun, although our movie is definitely not going to win.


These are scenes from the best part of the film shoot - our stunt!! The director had an old car to sacrifice, so we filmed it driving into the water, and then we towed it out right away!

I heard about the 48 hour festival. It's pretty big in NZ. There was one screened at Imageworks which was made by a terminally ill teenager. It was really good.

That's awesome you got to participate. I am sure if you stay there longer you will get to participate in another.
