Veteran 48 Hour Film Project company, It Donned On Me, put out this short documentary about a local runner who just can’t seem to get enough. What makes someone agree to run without stopping for 24 hours? Take a few minutes to check into the mind of Charles Wickersham. Look for a series of similar […]

A Magical World (or: A Real Truly Live Place)
This weekend, the 48 Hour Film Project will take place in a city that spans distance and time — the town of Machinima. Competitors will begin Friday night with instructions about elements that must appear in their film, and then using tools built for video games, virtual reality environments, and other mainstays of the Machinima […]
San Jose 48HFP 2010: Jurists Nominations
The judges have seen this year’s films and are ready for the Awards Night. They laughed a lot (often, where you intended for them to), and they cried a couple of times (once each over the terrible music I put on the DVD Screener Menu), and more than once they reported having the hairs on […]

Just Her Type
Bay Area filmmaker DB Cheng contributed to the 2009 San Jose 48 Hour Film Project hit “Dave and Liz.” For the 2010 season he decided to bring his own film company, EM West Productions to the party and submit his own competitive entry. This is what they came up with. We think you’ll enjoy their […]

We love to feature content that is designed to enlighten and teach. It’s no secret that the TED lectures are among the best of this sort of material online. These talks are a little bit longer than typical clips and videos online. But they are definitely worth the time. In one of the best of […]
Adventure cometh…
Seems like teams that compete in the 48 Hour Film Project either love or hate the new genre: Adventure Serial. This veteran team (you may know them as Beyond Forever Studios — now Ovation Pictures) leapt on the opportunity to do a sendup of the most iconic adventure serial from modern times. We think you […]
Everything’s — perfect!
Rising star filmmakers at Stabbing My Jelly! submitted this film to the 2010 San Francisco 48 Hour Film Project. They went all out with the look and took on a different style from their efforts in the past. Their entry in the San Jose competition is a candidate for Audience Choice Award as well as […]
More Game Than Dad
Veteran competition filmmakers at Outlaw Media Productions brought in this charmer for their San Jose 48 Hour Film Project entry for 2010. We like to applaud their enthusiasm for finding and developing very young new talent for the community. We’re starting to be a little bit excited about some of their recent finds. Take a […]
Learning from TED
For the most part here at See It Online, we’ve favored the short works, and those that primarily deliver entertainment. (We like being entertained, don’t you know…) But one of the richest emerging veins of emerging online content is that of educational matter once reserved for university students, and attendees at top level industry conferences.
