真人线上娱乐s Participate in the Seattle 48 Hour Film Project
To explore how race, gender, and sexuality are portrayed in various forms of media, students from BIS 162: Intersectionality of Race, Sex, and Gender in Film conducted analyses of diverse short films produced for the Seattle 48-Hour Film Project.
真人线上娱乐 48 Hour Film Project is an international contest where participants are challenged to produce a short film within two days. Teams face various obstacles, from creating a film from nothing and improvising based on randomly assigned tasks, such as genre, character, and dialogue. At the end of the competition, all films are screened at a local theater, and awards are presented in diverse categories, including Best Film and Best Actor. Winning films may advance to compete in international events like the Filmapalooza Festival and could even be screened at prestigious festivals, such as the Cannes Film Festival’s Short Film Corner.
