Each year, the 48 Hour Film Project, the world’s largest and oldest filmmaking competition visits over 110 cities –from The Rust Belt to Rome, challenging teams to complete an entire film from writing and casting to filming and editing in just 48 hours!
On July 20, 2012, Pittsburgh area filmmakers were given a prop, a character, a line of dialogue, a genre and 48 hours to make a 4-7 minute film. The winning film will go up against films from around the world. 35 filmmaking teams successfully completed a weekend of filmmaking. Films were turned in on Sunday, July 22 and the last few minutes before the deadline saw filmmakers, operating on little sleep and lots of adrenaline, rushing to get their films in on time.
Come out to the screenings and see what they produced in 48 hours! Each screening will have 11 different films.
