Hour Detroit Article PDF Print E-mail

challengeline2008Special thanks to Nancy Nall Derringer of last years team "The Jets" and creators of the very funny short film "The Gas Man".  If you have not taken a moment to read this article and Nancy's dramatic retelling of the virgin experience of a 48 hour film challenge weekend, do yourself a favor and check it out online at Hour Detroit.

Or better yet, pick up a copy of this months Hour Detroit Magazine and enjoy the feature article in all its page layout glory with additional photos and glorious glossy magazine feel.hourdetroit
My favorite moment from this year was just after the screenings event at Wayne, when we had a chance to slow down and hear the stories coming from each team and the adventures, trials, victories, and failures of the weekend gauntlet of film making.  I believe Nancy captures much of that in her own retelling.  I have also attached a PDF of the online version below, enjoy it anyway you would like... and thanks again to Nancy for taking the time to write up her experience for all of us to appreciate.

~ Shane
