This is getting ridiculous
By S Simmons. Filed in Editing |First we had the 48 hour film festival. Then someone decided you only need 24 hours to make a short film. Now if that wasn’t short enough comes Film Racing. The folks want you to sign up and pay your money and then make a 4 minute short from noon to midnight. Like most of these competitions you are given a theme and some other element (prop, action, or a line of dialog) that must be incorporated into the finished film. If you live (or want to travel to) Bosto, New York City, Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, Portland or San Francisco you too can participate in this madness! Just click on over to register. What’s next: The 1 Hour Film Festival? The 5 Minute Filmmaking Event? This wouldn’t be possible in a world without laptop editors and mini-dv.
