Fool's 48 Short Film Festival

Description

The Fool’s 48 Short Film Project is one of VCA’s featured community events.

Local teams have 48 hours to write, film, and edit a 4–7 minute film. This foolish undertaking is held over April Fool’s weekend. To add a challenge, each team draws a genre from a hat at the Friday evening kickoff event, and all teams must incorporate the same line of dialogue, prop, and location.

Monday night we host the Fool’s 48 Film Showcase at the Coyote Twin Theater. It’s always a blockbuster event!

The event kickoff will be Friday, March 31 at 5:30pm in the Coyote Gallery at 12 E. Main. At least one representative from each participating team will need to attend to receive the assigned genres and the required film elements. Teams then have only 48 hours to write, shoot, and edit a short 4–7 minute film.

Films must submitted to the Fool’s 48 Google Drive folder by 6:00pm Sunday, April 2. Only films by teams that meet the deadline will be screened in the showcase. The showcase will be held at the Coyote Twin Theater on Monday, April 3, at 7:00pm.

​Admission is $5 per person and tickets will be for sale starting Friday, March 31.

The VCA is exceptionally thankful to Ebsen House Productions for annual technical assistance.
