The 48 Hour Film Project

The Boston 48 Hour Film Project

The 48 Hour Film Project comes to Boston on the weekend of April 30th. Filmmakers from all over the Boston area will compete to see who can make the best short film in only 48 hours. The winning film will go up against films from around the world.

Enter today! Space is limited.

This year, teams will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. Once the initial registration is complete, we will accept teams for the Waiting List. If a registered team must drop out, we will go to the Waiting List. If there is enough interest, and we can secure additional theater time, we may be able to add more teams from the list.

Early Bird Registration is $135. Teams must register on or before Monday, April 5, to get this special rate. Afterwards, registration is $155.

Register for Boston now!


Events

The 48HFP: Best of All Time

Date: Wednesday, March 24th
Time: 7pm and 9:30pm
Place: Coolidge Corner Theater, 290 Harvard Street, Brookline
Notes: What happens when you give a team of filmmakers exactly 48 hours to make a movie? Just about anything! Since 2001, the 48 Hour Film Project has invited folks from around the world to spend a wild and sleepless weekend writing, shooting, and editing a short film. Around 180,000 people in 80 cities on four continents have made 12,000 films in 48 hours. Come see some of our favorites! Curated by Ben Guaraldi. Buy tickets here.
