The National Film Challenge, the 48 Hour Film Project's sister competition, is coming on October 23rd through 26th!

> Attention Filmmakers -
>>
> http://www.filmchallenge.org
>
> Regardless of where you live, this is your opportunity to write,
> shoot, and edit a short film in three days. Just like in the 48 Hour
> Film Project, you'll receive a character, prop, line of dialogue, and
> a genre at 7pm local time, October 23rd. Then you'll have to mail the
> film in on October 26th. In the following weeks the top films
> (determined by a national panel of judges) will be available for
> viewing (and voting!) on the NFC website. The winning films will
> screen with the 48 Hour Film Project City Winners at the next
> FIlmapalooza at the NAB Show, the 48 Hour Film Project's end of year
> event. In addition there are cash prizes for the winning films!
>
> SO WHO PARTICIPATES IN THE NATIONAL FILM CHALLENGE?

> --48HFP Filmmakers who have a need for speed and want to make another
> film before the 48HFP returns to your city in 2010.
