Des Moines 48 Hour Film Project

July 26-28, 2024
Des Moines

The Des Moines 48 Hour Film Project's mission is to advance filmmaking and promote filmmakers. Through its festival/competition, the Project encourages filmmakers and aspiring filmmakers to make movies. The tight deadline of 48 hours puts the focus squarely on the filmmakers—emphasizing creativity and teamwork skills. While the time limit places an unusual restriction on the filmmakers, it’s also liberating by putting an emphasis on "doing" instead of "talking. The completed films are premiered for local audiences just days after they are made. The Des Moines 48 Hour Film Project also offers a separate 48 Hour Film Horror Project event in October.
