48 Hour Green Film Project

Do you have stars in your eyes? Dream of seeing your name up in lights?
The 48 Hour Green Film Project is giving aspiring film makers the chance to write, cast, shoot and edit a short narrative film of four to seven minutes over the weekend of 14- 15 May 2011.
The 48 Hour Green Film Project is a national competition, which aims to shed light on the ecological challenges we face today, through film.
Council is encouraging local film makers to enter the competition, by subsidising the competition entry fee for Fairfield residents.
Locally, the project is being funded by the Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils’ Water in the Landscape program. So it’s only fitting that the theme for this year’s competition is ‘water’.
Council is further supporting local film activity through the category 'Best Film Made in Fairfield'. Entrants who feature Fairfield City locations, can win a cash prize of $1,500.
Council is also waiving filming application fees for the competition and offers a Fairfield City location guide of our 5 Creeks on the Council website.
The winning film is guaranteed a screening at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival – Short Film Corner.
There is also cash and prizes to be won to the value of $20,000.
The 48 Green Hour Film Project competition is being launched on 13 May 2011.
Everyone, any age, is encouraged to enter.
