Perfect Duluth Day: Vote for the Hometown Team

Those crazy kids out in Wrenshall are at it again. Mr Mike Scholtz and his filmmaking crew participated in their 2nd 48 hr Film Project last weekend. It'll be screened in Minneapolis at the super-cool Riverview Theater (3800 42nd Street S., in Minneapolis) Monday, June 18. This year, they're entered under the team name Free Range Film Fest. Films from other teams are being screened all week this week.

Each night, the audience votes for the best films, which then get shown again on another date. Then films get judged on stuff like Best Directing, Best Script, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Acting, Best Use of Character, Best Use of Prop, Best Use of Line, Best Music, Best Sound Design, Best Effects.

The people's votes are necessary.

Last year, the little team from Duluth won best soundtrack.

If you can make it, do. It's amazing how many people turn out for this thing. There were 85 teams in Mpls this year, I think there were about 60 last year. Mpls is now the 3rd largest 48 hr film city in the nation.

Again, that's Monday night, June 18th at 7pm at the Riverview Theater, 3800 42nd Street S., in Minneapolis.
