For those students who would see themselves as having Steven Spielberg’s film career (We have to save the soldier Ryan, Duel) or that of Michael Mann (Heat, the Last of the Mohicans), the TurboFilm is the springboard ideal!
This new kind of local festival celebrates its 10th edition in 2021 ! Organized by the SUAC (University Service for Cultural Action of the University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne), the TurboFilm aims to promote short films. This cinematographic format, poor relation of the 7th Art, remains in spite of everything almost essential for those who want to acquire a rigor and high cinematographic skills before, perhaps, of try out the feature film experience.
TurboFilm consists of write, shoot and edit a short film in 24 hours, all in respecting certain imposed constraints by the organization. It can be a sentence, a character name or even a particular accessory that must be included in the short film. All this will take place on March 5 and 6, 2022.
The TurboFilm, initially reserved for students, quickly opened up to non-student teams before, in recent years, going back to basics! All teams must register by February 27 next, by team of 4 members at least.
TurboFilm 10th Edition Trailer:
In the wake of this exhausting – but fascinating! – cinematographic creation day, the films will be broadcast in certain cultural places in Reims, via free screenings open to all. Then a professional jury distribute prizes to teams whose films have been recognized as the best.
Perhaps this 2021 edition of TurboFilm will allow some young talent tohatch and pursue a successful career in the field of the 7th Art, like Raphaëlle Jean-Louis, who won twice in 2014. Students, do not delay to take up this exciting challenge !
