4x4x48 Music Video Challenge

The Holland Project challenged film directors to create a music video from start-to-finish for local bands of Holland’s choosing in just 48 hours. Each filmmaker was also tasked with incorporating five elements into their films (as chosen by last year’s filmmakers). The five elements were not revealed until the clock was punched at the start of their 48-hour journey. Filmakers this year include: Rosie Zuckerman and Ilya Arbatman, Tara Tran, Sandra Pena, Exthvn and Cameron Paris. Bands include Slow Wow, Slate, Skew Ring, Stirr Lightly and Yung Venom. Join us for the screening of the results followed by a Q & A with the filmmakers and musicians.
