What is the 2nd Act Film PROJECT? 

The 2nd Act Film project is a unique take on the indie film team project. Presented by The Jasper Project, its mission is to encourage and promote the growth of independent filmmaking in South Carolina through collaborative and creative projects.

Filmmakers submit their names and examples of work to be considered for participation in the festival. A group of South Carolina media and arts professionals will select the final group of filmmakers to participate. 14 filmmaking teams from around South Carolina will be selected to participate.

The level of filmmaking experience can range from beginner to professional. our goal is to gather a highly creative and diverse group of voices that represent independent filmmaking in the state.

filmmakers are given the 1st Act and the 3rd Act (one page each) of a script. The filmmaker's job is to write the 2nd Act and make the film.  All films will then screen october 23rd at the 701 whaley marketplace in Columbia, SC.
