Vestal’s One Week Film Project
February 6th, 2007
Rather than grow apathetic in the South American summer, Vestal designers in Lima are challenging themselves to a little friendly film-making competition. The rules are simple: each director has one week to conceive, write, film, and edit a movie to premiere, done or not, on Sunday night. The budget for each production is 10 Peruvian soles, or about $3. There is no prize.
Sometimes it’s easy to fall into a routine, a rut, that leaves little time to seek out new experiences. With this festival, we’re forcing ourselves to create art, to try something different, at least for a week. If the films are any good, hopefully we’ll post a few here on Monday.
Anyone else interested should start filming immediately. Call up your friends, break out the cameras, and go for it!

The concept was based on the many 24hr film festivals in SF/NYC/etc but we wanted to be able to accommodate a working schedule (to avoid filming during business hours) and here in Lima we also need to share cameras.
