Filmmakers get your teams together and prepare for a madhouse of creativity: Spiva Center for the Arts is hosting the Twelfth Annual FilmSpiva 48-Hour Film Competition this June.

Contestants will meet in the Main Gallery at 6pm, Thursday, June 10, to receive this year’s criteria. They then have 48 hours to complete a 3-minute short film. Deadline to submit entries is 6pm, Saturday, June 12. The cost is $20 per team.

Films will be screened at Bookhouse Cinema, 715 E Broadway, on June 26 starting at 5:00pm. There will be three showings of all the films, 5:00pm, 6:00pm and 7:00 pm with an awards ceremony after the final showing. Winning films are determined by a panel of jurors as well as a people’s choice award chosen by popular vote and awards will be presented at 8:00pm that evening. Anyone interested in sponsoring the competition or donating prizes should contact Shaun Conroy, sconroy@spivaarts.org.
