The 48 Hour Music Video Project Invades Detroit!
Register by October 15th as a either a filmmaking team or a band for a discounted rate.
From the team that brings you the Detroit 48HFP comes the 48 Hour Music Video project making its debut in 2012 here in Detroit. We're looking for at least ten bands, ten film teams and 10 music videos - all made in just 48 hours. The filming weekend will be Friday Nov. 9 through Sunday Nov. 11. The music videos will then screen at a public venue later in November 2012. The winning video screens nationally at the awards ceremony at Filmapalooza in 2013.
Do you have a filmmaking team together that's been dying to do a music video? Are you a part of a band that's been looking to have your own video done? Now's the chance to make it happen!
DETAILS ON HOW IT WORKS
Bands and film teams sign up to make a music video in one weekend, following standard rules of the 48HFP. Bands bring a completed and recorded original song to the Kick off. At the Kick Off (Friday Nov. 9th) bands and teams are randomly assigned to each other via a drawing process. 48 Hours later at the drop off, the music videos are completed.
Anyone can join! Bands/songwriters will be required to provide an original song which they wrote and recorded (no covers). Musicians of all genres are welcome: rock bands, singer songwriters, rappers, DJ's (with music permissions) and solo artists.
