WHAT IS THE 24HR VIDEO RACE?

The 24 Hour Video Race is a fun filmmaking competition in which teams of videomakers have 24 hours to write, shoot, edit and score an original short film.

The 2010 24-Hour Video Race will begin at the Angelika Film Center in Dallas/Mockingbird Station at 11:59PM on Friday, May14th with a theme, prop, location and line of dialogue assignment for the film. The race concludes 24 hours later with a sprint to the finish line back at the Angelika Film Center in Dallas.

All of the films that make it by the 12-midnight deadline will be screened and compete for awards and bragging rights. The winning videos will be screened at the 23rd VideoFest in September and also on Frame of Mind, a television program on KERA Ch. 13.

This Year It's Digital:
This years race you will hand in a h264 quicktime file on Jump Drives we will provide you. (Have no idea what that means? Click here: Exporting Your Video.)
 
Who Can Race?
Anyone with a camera and willingness the will to go 30fames per sec for 24-hours! (That’s 2,592,000 frames!) Anyone from elementary-school kids to professional filmmakers compete in this event.

Student teams compete against other student teams, but adult teams are categorized by team size rather than skill level, since most teams have a mix of professionals, novices and everything in-between. Accountant by day, aspiring filmmaker by night? Highly paid professional in the film industry, bored with having to repress your creativity on client jobs? Want to try out a new technique and see how it plays for an audience? Always wanted to make a film but never had the time or budget? This is the competition for you!

Requires only 24 hours, creativity, motivation, easy-to-come-by equipment and a small fee that enables the Video Association of Dallas, a non-profit organization, to make this event happen.
