Frugal Films Summer 2024 short film challenge will be coming in August. We want to make sure you're ready!
Our mission is to push filmmakers to get out there and make movies – no matter what. We all have excuses about why we aren't filming, but we don't want to hear them.
Upcoming seasons:
- Summer 2024 (August)
- Winter 2024 (November)
When the time comes, we send out the Challenge Kit to each team leader. You will get 1 week to complete your film. It's a lot like a 48 Hour short film challenge except we send you the script and we give you a little more time to perfect your movie.
The Script
Each season we come up with a new short screenplay that each team will adapt and film. We have a few guidelines about what must stay and what can be changed. But as a general rule, things like setting, genre, character descriptions, and the ending itself are all up to interpretation and adaptation. We love seeing what each team comes up with.
Our last challenge saw the screenplay adapted into sci-fi, drama, action, and comedy. Each one was so different but all from the same source material. So don't think you'll be stuck with a story you don't like – it's all part of the challenge of making the best movie you can with what you have!
Join the upcoming season, Summer 2024
Our next challenge is coming August, 2024.
