The 48 Hour Film Project is a global filmmaking challenge which asks filmmakers to make a short film in just 48 hours!
Filmmakers from all over the Johannesburg, South Africa area will compete to see who can make the best short film in only 48 hours. Filmmaking teams have just one weekend to make a short film. All creativity—writing, shooting, editing and adding a musical soundtrack—must occur in the 48 hour window beginning Friday evening at 7:00pm and ending Sunday at 7:00pm. The following week, the completed films are screened to an eager audience.The winning film from each city will go up against films from around the world at Filmapalooza 2021 for a chance at the grand prize and an opportunity to screen at the Cannes Film Festival 2021 Short Film Corner.
