Be Part of the Action

After creating a 3-5minute short film in only 48 Hours, teams will be walking down the red carpet to showcase their works on the GIANT Screen! Film prompts are given at the beginning of the challenge, which means each team wrote, shot, and edited their short film in the 48 hours prior to this screening.

Audience members will be able to vote for their films, and winners of the Critic’s Choice and Audience favorites will win cash prizes.

Screening starts at 7pm  |  GIANT Screen Theater
