Making a film in 48 hours is no small feat, and sometimes the hardest part is getting started! How do we come up with a compelling story that we can carefully craft in just two short days? Thankfully we had a full team of creative minds on hand this year to help us brainstorm some story ideas for our writers to build off of. Enjoy this eagle-eyed behind the scenes look from night one of this years 48 Hour Film Project Des Moines during our initial idea session!
Surprise! 😎 As we emerge from our first public screening tonight, we present to you a more...accurate... trailer for Dream Girl! A brand new 48 hour film! Coming to the internet this Fall 🍂
Congratulations to all the filmmakers who presented at Group B this evening! We had a tremendous time watching all your films! 🍿

EXCITING NEWS REGARDING OUR SCREENING THIS FRIDAY!
We are excited to announce that our virtual screening of LIFE'S WORK will take place on ohyayco! One of our talented producers Noah Lucy designed our very own Retro Neon virtual cinema in Oh Yay, and we're excited to let attendees experience the immersive cinema experience wherever you might be in the world. To find out more about how you can view our film in the space this Friday, check out this video that director Tristan Bennett has created!
The film itself is only 7 minutes long, so we will start the first screening after 8 pm central and continue re-playing the movie until 9pm, so if you're unable to make it right away at 8, feel free to hop in whenever you can and join the fun!
To view our Oh Yay space, just make an account and visit https://ohyay.co/s/retro-neon-film and be sure to login and attend our virtual screening this Friday, March 25th, from 8-9pm! Save this post so you can easily find the link later!
"This script is to die for..."
The first trailer for LIFE'S WORK, starring Skyler Ferguson, is out now! On March 25th at 8:00pm, we will present a limited online screening and then POOF... You'll have to wait a bit longer until we are able to have a more permanent release! So make sure to mark it down on your calendars if you don't want to miss it! More details in the coming days but for now enjoy the trailer!
Any guesses on what our main character could have been looking at there at the end? 🤔

You didn't quite ask for it... but we're givin' it to ya anyways! Check out some of the goofs, gaffs, and outtakes we captured while filming our latest short film Asking for Answers: Finding Eli (available to stream on our YouTube channel now)!
Although I must mention... this isn't quite all of the outtakes... we had to save SOME stuff for the directors cut which may or may not be coming out in a few weeks... 😉👀
Anyways... we hope you enjoy, and thank you for your continued support of our film!
