This is a “48-hour” short film contest – production does not begin until after the prompt is received.

Your team will be tasked with creating a short film of four-and-one-half to five minutes that incorporates the prompt in some creative way. Your interpretation of the prompt and the film you create is completely up to you.  Most importantly, judges will be looking first and foremost at how successful you are at telling a story.

Please use the sample scorecard to see how technical aspects of the project will be scored and refer to the SkillsUSA 2019-2020 Technical Standards for information regarding what equipment is or is not allowed to be used for this contest.
