48HFP MELBOURNE is back for its sixth year running! The world’s biggest international short film competition returns to Melbourne to challenge and inspire Victoria’s film-making community. Participants will be battling it out over 48 hours to take home the award for Best Film. With top prize being a ticket and a trip to this year’s Filmapalooza in New Orleans, 48HFP Melbourne is expecting some stiff competition. Over one hectic weekend, filmmakers will shoot, edit and score their film. Sounds too easy? We thought so too; 48HFP will give each team a prop, character and line of dialogue to fit in with their randomly selected genre. The competition will be kicking off on Friday 11th October at 7:00 pm in The Atrium (Federation Square) and drop off will be 48 hours later, Sunday 13th October at 7:00 pm in Deakin Edge, Fed Square. Every year 48 Hour Film Project Melbourne has brought the local filmmaking community together in a creative forum where innovation and artistry collide. 48HFP is committed to developing the artistic talents of the community by offering filmmakers a chance for networking and international exposure. Creative Forum, 14th September, Australian Center for the Moving Image, 2pm free event In last year’s Melbourne 48 Hour Film Project, the film, The Anti-Social Network, swept the awards. The film won 5 awards including Best Film, Best Director (Chris Tomkins), Best Script (Geoff Paine), Best Actors (Geoff Paine and Michelle Nussey) as well as the Audience Choice award.
