About the Show

5 new films in 16 days.

Here’s what happens at RIPFest:
At the first meeting, 5 teams of artists who’ve never met are announced – each comprised of:
a writer, producer, director, composer, editor, DP, group of actors (2-5), and a small crew.

The teams are given guidelines to create a 5-10 minute DV film. Then they have

2 days to write a first draft
3 days for rewrites
2 days for pre-production.
2 days to shoot the film.
1 week for post production and

16 days after the first time everyone met, the films are premiered!
