The 48 Hour Film Project is coming to HOUSTON! In a wild, sleepless
weekend, you and a team will make a movie--write, shoot, edit and score
it. From scratch. In 48 hours. On Friday, May 19th, you'll get a
character, a prop, a line of dialogue and a genre, all to include in
your movie. By Sunday, May 21st, the movie must be complete. It will
show at River Oaks Theater at a screening in the next week.
There are three ways to be involved:
1. FORM A TEAM. If you can rustle up enough folks to make a movie,
great! The project is open to pros and amateurs alike. Just put
together a team and register on-line at
http://www.48hourfilm.com/houston and then meet us on Friday, May 19th,
ready to go. There are only a limited number of slots, so apply
soon...
2. JOIN A TEAM. If you're interested in participating, but can't form
a team, you can still definitely be involved! There will be happy
hours where folks can meet team leaders and join their teams. Get your
information to team leaders at:
http://www.48hourfilm.com/join
...and get your ear to the ground by signing up for the Houston 48HFP
yahoo group at:

3. WATCH THE MOVIES. Come on by to the see the movies! They will be
showing at the River Oaks Theater on Wednesday, May 24th and Thursday,
May 25th. (Each night is a totally different set of movies.)
Meet other filmmakers, spend 48 hours in intense movie making, and have
your film screened at the River Oaks Theater! And compete to represent
Houston at the 48HFP national screening!
