    Best of DC 48HFP at the GV Expo—Wednesday and Thursday

    Special Baltimore 48HFP films about Edgar Allan Poe at the Baltimore Museum of Art

    1) Don’t miss the annual GVExpo at the Washington Convention Center.  This trade show has all of the top manufacturers demonstrating their latest equipment.  In addition, you can join or renew your membership with TIVA, the local television and video professional association, at a discounted rate.

    A selection of the Best of DC 2009 48 Hour Films will be screening:

    Wednesday, December 2    11:30 am – 12:30 pm

    Thursday, December 3         11:30 am – 12:30 pm

    2) If you are someone who loves Edgar Allan Poe, we’ve got something for you.

    Our Baltimore 48HFP Producer, Rob Hatch, and a number of Baltimore 48 Hour filmmakers have collaborated with the world renowned Baltimore Museum of Art to bring you 48 Hours of Madness: A Cinematic Celebration of Edgar Allan Poe.

    17 filmmakers from around the greater Baltimore area chose a Poe character and line, and were assigned one of three themes from the BMA’s exhibit, Edgar Allan Poe; A Baltimore Icon.  As you may know, 2009 is the bicentennial of Poe’s birth, and he died and is buried here in Baltimore.

    Come see how different filmmakers and filmmaking teams took the themes of Fear and Terror, Love and Loss, and Madness and Obsession and turned these into dark, macabre, humorous, and surreal cinematic visions.

    The screenings are free and open to the public.

    December 4 and December 11th,

    8PM

    Baltimore Museum of Art.

    Different films will be shown at each screening, and the museum opens at 6 PM for this special event.

    You can find out more at http://www.artbma.org/calendar/films.html#Film or   www.48hourfilm.com/baltimore

    Hope to see you there, and don’t be afraid of the dark!

    Enjoy!
