SUMMARY:Slug48—Student Film Competition\, Screening\, and Awards Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The third annual Slug48 returns with a 48-hour film competition—open to all UC Santa Cruz students. A 48-hour film is one that is written\, shot\, edited\, and all music composed within a 48-hour time period. Teams and strategies for filming may be formed ahead of time\, but nothing can be written\, and no footage can be shot\, until the clock is ticking. Slug48 was founded in 2024 thanks to the support and enthusiasm of UC Santa Cruz alumnus Kevin Nolting\, former editor at Pixar Animation Studios\, where he edited the Academy Award-winning films Up!; Inside Out; and Soul. \nABOUT THE EVENT \nCompetition Opens\nFri.\, April 24\, 5:00 p.m. | UCSC Communications 139\n– parameters assigned (a theme\, a prop\, a line of dialogue that must be in the film to ensure nothing was shot ahead of time)\n– filming begins\n– open to all UCSC students\n– advanced registration recommended here; however students can sign up at the Competition Opens event \nCompetition Closes\nSun.
