Some people sit around and talk about making a movie. Others do it. This weekend, forty teams of filmmakers will meet down the street from Video Gear in Sorrento Valley to kick off 48 hours of writing, shooting, and editing forty original short films.

Join us on Tuesday, August 12, for a special SDF networking event at which representatives from select teams will share with us their experiences of making a movie from start to finish in one weekend. Find out what creative techniques these filmmakers employed to overcome the outrageously challenging time limitations upon them, and what they would do differently next time.

Want to get in on the fun?

Go to 48hourfilm.com/sandiego for information about the 48 Hour Film Project or to find out if it's not too late to register your team. If you are already registered in the competition and you would like to be considered to speak on our panel, contact us by Friday before the kick-off!

Come network with your San Diego filmmaking peers from 6-7 PM, then stay to learn about the challenges of making a film in 48 hours! Plus, you'll have a chance to win FREE PASSES to see the finished films on Saturday, August 16, at the UltraStar Cinemas Mission Valley!

Don't forget to bring your business cards and head shots! And please be sure to tell everyone you know in the San Diego filmmaking community about this exciting, free event.

See you there.
