ABOUT OUR EVENTS
What is an Instant Film Festival?
“Here’s how an Instant Films weekend works. On Friday evening, eight writers make three random draws: a noun, an adjective and specifications for the number of men and women to be the cast. Twelve hours later, they have to present a finished script. Directors then make their own random draws from the available scripts and actors. These teams then turn in a finished seven to nine minute film, all edited and complete with music and titles and everything ready for public screening at 7 p.m. Sunday at LA Center Studios.” — Hollywood Reporter
What are Instant Films screenings like?
“The 400 seat theater at Los Angeles Center Studios was buzzing with anticipation. It was like an opening night screening of the latest installment of “Star Wars” – minus the guys dressed up as wookies and waving light sabers.” —Los Angeles Times
What are Instant Films like?
“All of this frenetic activity yields hilarious and surreal shorts of astonishing quality and coherence, not to mention a boost for local coffee sales.” —Flavorpill.com
