Film Racing 24 Hour Challenge 2010

This year, LoftonFilms participated in the 2010 Washington D.C. 24 Hour Film Racing Challenge.

Here's the official website.

On Friday night, September 24th, 2010 at 10pm, LoftonFilms was given an e-mail with a 'Theme' and a 'Surprise Element'.

The way this specific contest works is that you have 24 hours to write, produce and edit the 3 and 1/2 minute movie.

Needless to say, it was a challenge both physically and mentally!

This year our team consisted of 5 main players; myself (Director / Editor), Erik D. Miller (Co-Writer & Main Actor), Jessica Nero (actress), Rajiv Deonauth (actor) and John Lofton III (Sound / Other).

For this contest I built a custom 'First Person View' rig, which I call the FPV Rig 2.0. It's an indy rig, for sure (AKA low budget).

The name of our short film is, "The OCD Burglar".

I'll have pictures online after the screening, this Thursday.

The Screening for the 24 Hour Contest films is this Thursday night. Here are the details:


7pm - 9pm
E Street Cinema
555 11th Street Northwest
Washington, DC

Come check out the premiere of the films this Thursday at 7:00PM and vote for your favorites! Tickets are $9 in advance and can be purchased online at http://www.filmracing.com/Cities/WashingtonDC.htm or at the door on the night of the screening for $10 if tickets are still available.
