Who sees the films?
The films screen to capacity audiences in every city we’ve visited. Of course the filmmakers, actors, family and friends are there to enthusiastically support the premiere of the weekend’s work. But also supporters of the local film community, and discriminating viewers who want to see something new—something raw and alive—are there to feel the creative energy. Winners of the city contest are distributed on a “Best Of” 48 Hour Film DVD, which you can purchase from Factory 515. They are also screened at major film festivals. The winning films from 2003 were screened at South by Southwest in Austin. The winning films from 2006 screened at our own Filmapalooza in Albuquerque. The winning films from 2004, 2005, and 2007 were screened at Cinequest in San Jose.
