72-Hour Filmmaker Showdown, presented & produced by Whistler Film Festival is returning to Whistler. Teams will be put to the test as they are invited to shoot, edit and produce a 3-5 minute film in just 72 hours. Forget big budgets and exotic locations, we want to see how creative you can get by filming within 100km of Whistler using any recording device of your choosing. The grand prize of $5000 is open to all aspiring filmmakers, but it will take grassroots grit, originality, imagination and great storytelling to steal centre stage.
Registration opening soon.
