The Objective:
To indulge your imagination and think outside the box. Participants are being offered an opportunity to utilize the borough of Manhattan as their backdrop and create a 3.5 minute film which captures a subject matter / storyline which is totally up to the filmmaker. Perhaps the filmmaker incorporates many of the sights and sounds of this incredible city or perhaps the production deals with some historical aspect or perhaps the subject matter deals with something inspiring or perhaps...
You are being given a blank canvas, so please let your creative juices flow freely.

The Guidelines for participants:
1. Part of the purpose of this project is to experience the camaraderie of the members in the GPVA, both longstanding members and those new to the association. We are asking all participants to make this journey together on the bus to and from NYC.
2. Teams can consist of either one or two or three participants. This team can include people from the same studio or up to three individual filmmakers who are collaborating together for this project.
3. All footage that is to be utilized in the edit MUST be recorded on this date.
4. Any equipment that the participants are utilizing for this project is their responsibility for the entire day. The bus is not going to be utilized as a locker for video cameras, tripods, etc. Any gear that you bring, you are carrying for the day, so pack wisely.
5. The length of the edit must be no longer than 3 minutes and 30 seconds. The edit must be returned on a standard DVD to the GPVA by 7:00PM on the date of the October meeting.
6. Finally, the GPVA really and truly wants this to be a fun experience for everyone. This can be an opportunity for members to be creative, to make new friends and to work with their colleagues on a non-wedding related venture.
The Guidelines for non-participants:
You can walk around the city, take in a Broadway show, an exhibit at a museum OR you can tag along with one of the participating teams while they are working on this project.
This could be a wonderful opportunity for you to observe and learn first hand from some of your fellow members their thought process and some of their techniques that they may be imploring during this day of film making.
All participants will have their edited production presented at The GPVA's October meeting.
At this time, they will have the opportunity to discuss their film and field questions from the audience
