2010 Two-Minute Two Step

Last night was the big filmmaker technical meeting for this year's Two-minute, Two step.

If you don't already know about this program, you should! Filmmakers from all over the country submit 2 minutes scripts. Eight are chosen to be produced during the festival and screened as PART of the festival at the Leammle on Sunset! One of the shorts will be selected to win the grand prize, which for this year is a Canon Rebel 2TI (that shoots amazing video!)

Tim Smith from Canon USA was on hand to show some samples of video footage from the 5D Mark II, which is what this year's shorts will be shot on. Each of the eight filmmakers selected are given these cameras to use, a location to shoot, audio and editing equipment. They will supply the rest: cast, crew, design, costumes, etc... They will only have 4 hours to shoot and edit these short films, which will screen the following day!
