artvamp	post #1  on January 20, 2003 - 12:58 PM PST   THE 72 HOUR FEATURE PROJECT http://WWW.72HFP.COM You have exactly three days to shoot, edit, and complete a feature length motion picture. Can you do it? DEADLINE FOR PROPOSALS: MARCH 28, 2003 NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE: APRIL 15, 2003 DEADLINE FOR FINAL MOVIE SUBMISSION: JUNE 3, 2003 The 72 Hour Feature Project is an international competition for film and video makers who have the ability and drive to finish production and post-production on a feature-length motion picture in three consecutive days or less. As Director of the festival, I believe that great things can be motivated by near-impossible deadlines. With good planning and a concept or script which facilitates haste, new ways of making will emerge. So if youre willing to take the challenge, and strive for both artistry and efficiency, the 72 Hour Feature Film Project could be one of the most rewarding feats you will accomplish as a maker. We are inviting proposals from every corner of the globe. These must be submitted in English by March 28, 2003, along with the official entry form and entry fee. Only twelve film/video makers will be accepted to participate. Every proposal that is accepted, and goes on to successfully meet the 72 hour deadline, will have a well-deserved world premiere screening at the 72 Hour Film Festival in Chicago, USA in June 2003. Makers will receive an official certificate of completion. At the end of the screenings one movie will be chosen by our judges to receive a Grand Prize and cash award. There are no restrictions regarding content, film or video format, nor the experience level of the maker. This can be your first feature or your 50th. You may submit treatments for movies of any genre, style, theme, or concept you choose. Autonomous vision will be favored over expertise. This is a unique opportunity to challenge yourself creatively, and to compete among an international group of motivated and inspired film and video makers.
