The 48 Hour Film Project's mission is to advance filmmaking and promote filmmakers. Through its festival/competition, the Project encourages filmmakers and would-be filmmakers to get out there and make movies. The tight deadline of 48 hours puts the focus squarely on the filmmakers—emphasizing creativity and teamwork skills. While the time limit places an unusual restriction on the filmmakers, it is also liberating by putting an emphasis on "doing" instead of "talking."
In collaboration with Charlie Porter from Burning House and Kristjan Knigge from GR8 Films we made a short film (4 min) called "In Loving Memory" about a mistake easily made in an awkward situation. The short film was screened at ACMI and got selected into the finals (embedded video coming up soon...)
