Description: HP48Hours is NZ's largest guerrilla filmmaking competition! There is nothing quite like it. Simply put, filmmakers have just one weekend to make a short film. Subscribe for more videos youtube.com/cowps1 youtube.com/gisborneherald Filmmakers don't know what genre (thriller/romance etc.) they will be shooting until the start of the competition. All creativity: writing, shooting, editing and adding a musical soundtrack, must occur within the 48-hour window beginning Friday evening at 7 pm and ending Sunday at 7 pm. To add to the mayhem, they must also include some random elements. In previous years, they have included lines of dialogue, props, characters and special camera moves. In 2018 - who knows? A few days later, the completed films are all screened in heats to an eager audience. The best films are selected by judges to compete in the city finals. Then the judges select the best of the best and along with Peter Jackson's Wildcards, compete in a massive Grand Final offering fabulous prizes and glory. HP48Hours is a serious challenge for both first-time filmmakers through to experienced directors. Filmed and Edited by Ben Cowper Cowps Productions cowpsproductions@hotmail.com
