“A Place Called Sacramentoâ€
For the ninth year, Access Sacramento launches “A Place Called Sacramento†(PCS), a scriptwriting and short film production project for local writers and producers. PCS challenges local scriptwriters to write ten-minute scripts about the people, places, and events that make our community such a unique place to live (entry forms below and on-line at www.accesssacramento.org).
Access Sacramento provides a series of workshops are held at the Coloma Center throughout the Spring providing professional training in PCS scriptwriting, production planning, acting for the camera, low budget production, and post-production techniques. Details are available on the web site: www.accesssacramento.org (Click on Quentin to get more Film Festival information.)
All script entries are reviewed by a panel of local professionals and ten are selected. These ten scriptwriter/producers are then introduced to actors and production teams at our “Cast and Crew Call†Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Production teams are formed and the ten films are produced during the Summer months. Finally, after weeks of hard work and great fun, friends gather at the World Premiere to a packed house at the CREST Theatre on October 5, 2008.In the eight years of PCS, 79 short films have been created.
