Surviving a 48-Hour Film Challenge
Well there are festivals around the states where you are required to make a short film (1-5 minutes) within 48 hours. This means specific elements a theme and a dialogue. You can not start creating any of this until the O.K. is given. Everything must be planned, shot, edited, rendered, compressed, and handed in within the 48 hour time period. In this article they actually do stress that it is important to do some planning prior to the contest. They explain that if you try and find a place to film during the 48 hours it will make life a nightmare. so the moral of this article is to have your basic things planned before you go into the competition. Have a location. Have an idea of what you want to film. Finally, stay up late and get the editing done. Looking at the article title I thought it would have been a little better. The article pretty much describes all the things you would figure to do before entering the festival. I give the article a 3 out of 7
