The 48 Hour team have seen what you can do in 48 hours–just imagine what you’ll be able to do in 72. Register for the global online competition, the Four Points Film Project, and make your short film in the 72 hour period of this 11 to 14 November 2016 for a shot at filmmaking awards, cash, and even a chance to screen at Filmapalooza and Cannes.
Entries close on Friday 11 November.

Filmmakers from all over the world will compete to see who can make the best short film in only three days. The 4PFP is an online contest which follows the same basic idea of the 48HFP – write, produce, and edit a short film in just a weekend using an assigned genre and three elements which are announced via email at the start of the weekend.

The 4PFP films are all judged by a panel of film professionals, and the top 4PFP film will be awarded $3 000 USD and screen at both Filmapalooza 2017 and the Cannes Film Festival 2017, Court Metrage. Additionally the top 15 films will be made available online where the general public will vote for the winner of Audience Favorite, who will recieve $1 000 USD and also screen at Filmapalooza 2017.
Make a Film in THREE Days.

The Four Points Film Project competition weekend begins at 7:00 PM your local time on November 11, 2016 and concludes on November 14. That gives your team 77 hours to write, shoot, edit, score and submit your short film. You will be assigned two random genres and you must shoot your film using either, or both, of the genres. Each time zone will be assigned its own set of elements – character, prop and line of dialogue. All films will be submitted online and instructions will be provided to your team upon registration.
