The first-ever K-State 48 Hour Film Festival kicked off last Thursday. Once the required materials were revealed in Town Hall of the Leadership Studies Building, teams of up to six members got their creative juices flowing. Films had to include one food item, the phrase “make sure you’re right” and the exterior of a K-State building.
The Collegian followed the team 48-Dominate to show what it took to make movie magic in only 48 hours. The team was made up of five journalism students: graduate student Karly Craig, senior Kenia Mills, senior Nicholas Patterson, junior Katherine Curtis and sophomore James Copeland.
