Three Coin Productions Wins 24 Hour Film Competition

Three Coin Productions was pleased to participate in the 2008 24 Hour Film Festival.  On January 11th 2008, contestants were given 24 hours to make a film with the following guidelines:  The theme must relate to "Compassion."  There must be band-aid in the film.  And the film must contain the line "Could you please..."


TCP teamed up with Matt Mattson and Jake Suazo, two very funny and talented improv actors.  After a breakfast brainstorm session, and a two hour shoot, production was complete.  Mat Gerow was the DP, and Garrett Batty directed and edited.  After a few more hours editing, and tweaking, the film was ready to submit.

On January 18th, 41 submitted films screened to a packed theater.  Audience members and judges submitted ballots for their favorite films.  Winners were announced at an awards ceremony on January 19.  "#Pound# 646" was awarded audience choice, and first place from the judges.

More information on the festival can be found at www.ldsfilmfestival.org
