FILM FESTIVAL
What is the 48 Hour Film Festival?
A 48 hour film festival is when a filmmaker/group of filmmakers have exactly 48 hours to create a film from start to finish. This includes writing the script, shooting, and editing.
To increase the challenge, we assign each team a specific genre, prop, and line they must include in their film!
At the end the films will be screened to the Western community, and judges will determine the winning filmmaking team. Prizes will be awarded!
