72 Hour Film Shootout
June 9 - 12, 2006 Nationwide
The 72 Hour Film Shootout is a nationwide competition where filmmaking teams have 72 hours to write, shoot, edit and produce short digital films up to six minutes in length and based on a common theme. The intention of this competition is to create opportunities for Asian Americans to demonstrate their talent, gain exposure in the entertainment industry, and impact the visibility of Asian American stories and characters in film and television. At least one key production member and a principal actor from each team must be of Asian descent.
At the 2005 72 Hour Film Shootout competition, the launch party was attended by over 300 local filmmakers and their supporters. Over 51 registered teams around the nation (i.e. CA, NJ, NY, TX) spent the next three days intensively conceiving and creating their films. The top film had the opportunity to create a MTV World Promo. The top three films were awarded a one-on-one pitch session with MTV industry executives for new programming. The 15 finalists' films were screened at the 2005 NY Asian American International Film Festival, presented by Asian CineVision, in New York City.
On June 9th, 2006, at 8:00pm, the 3rd Annual 72 Hour Film Shootout will commence. The competition theme will be announced at the New York City launch party and simultaneously relayed over the internet to out of town competitors. This year, The Shootout anticipates 75 to 100 teams with an average of five people per team (a total of 375 to 500 participants). In addition, over 300 attendees are expected at each of The Shootout events (Launch Party, Wrap Party, After Party, Screening) not including the countless numbers of spirited supporters and enthusiasts.
REGISTRATION DEADLINES:
* Regular June 2
* Late June 8.
