48 Hour Film Project
July 20, 2004

(Selected republication of old entries from the pre-Movable Type journal...)

Erik Rankins, who wrote the screenplay for The Third Cord, emailed me last week and said (a) Jack Lucido and Erik should finish editing the rough cut in the next few weeks, and (b) he wanted me for his team on the 48 Hour Film Project, which is going to happen in Greensboro, NC for the first time this August. I agreed to do it and I just heard from Stephen van Vuuren of Seven Smiling Sharks, who I think is heading up the team. I haven't met Stephen yet, and I don't know who else from The Third Cord will be involved, but meeting and working with new independent filmmakers in the area is rarely a bad thing. Basically, the 48 Hour Film Project is a city-based annual competition (I think previously the nearest one was in D.C.) where filmmaking teams are given a genre and some details (a line of dialogue, a prop, etc.) and must put together a completed, edited film in 48 hours. Should make for a fun weekend. It would be funny if, of the films I've worked on so far, this one is the first to be actually completed so I can use it in a reel. More info of that at www.48hourfilm.com.
