The 48 Hour Film Project is returning to Jacksonville. In a wild, sleepless weekend, you and a team of friends can make a movie. Your team will write, shoot, edit and score an original 4 – 8 minute film in just 48 HOURS. On Friday, June 5, your team will get a character, a prop, a line of dialogue and a genre, all to include in your movie. By Sunday, the movie must be complete and turned in. All completed films will be screened the following week at the Florida Theatre on a big screen to about 1000 viewers. Here is how you can get involved: Go to www.48hourfilm.com/jacksonville and click the “Join a Jacksonville team” link and follow the directions. This will put you in the volunteer database. Send in your information (headshot, resume, etc) in electronic. Come to two Meet & Greet Parties at the River City Brewing Company. Saturday, May 2, from 2 – 4 pm and Wednesday, May 13, from 7 – 9 pm. And finally, be at the Jacksonville Landing on Friday, June 5. (Many people join teams at the last minute during the Kick Off event.) Then come to the screenings and vote for your favorites June 9 & 10 at the Florida Theatre. Tickets for the Award Screening are only $10. 622-6800
