48 Hour Film Project Announces Winners

The Chicago 48 Hour Film Project has officially announced the winners of this year’s event.

It kicked off Friday, July 27 setting over 70 different Chicago-based filmmaking teams off and running. By July 29 all but one participating team had turned in a completed film. Every completed film (each between four and seven minutes long) screened at the Patio Theater the following week, from July 31 to Aug. 2.

Winners were announced at the Best-Of Awards Show last week and updated at www.48hourfilm.com/Chicago.
