48HFP Awards and Best of Screening

Our film, Bounce Back, was selected to screen again this past weekend at the Best of New York Screening for the 48 Hour Film Project.

The films were all great this year, and team Panic Pants (aka One Glass) walked away with three awards on Friday: an Audience Award, Best Use of Prop, and Best Art Direction!

Also, did I mention that our team name was briefly mentioned in the New York Times? Just scan the 4th paragraph for "hip, ironic names" and you'll see us listed. Hmm. Hip. That's ironic.

2010 NYC 48 Hour Film Project

This year, from June 4th-6th, the 48 Hour Film Project came once again to New York. And for the 5th time, we signed up our team for the restless weekend of film making.

The elements this year for everyone were:

Required character: Ellie or Ethan St. John, President of ______

Required prop: a tennis ball

Line of dialogue: "Are you sure?"

Each team was randomly assigned a different genre; One Glass Video (aka team Panic Pants) was given the genre of Dark Comedy. What we came up with? The former president of a tennis ball company searches for love in a post apocalyptic world.

We hope you like it!!
