After nearly twenty rounds in the 48 Hour Film Project, we sort of expect Film Antics to be a well-oiled machine. They’ve produced numerous films that gathered awards including a City Winner for San Jose in 2013, and Best Film finalists in other cities and years. This time we opted for a closer look, so […]

It’s Slobberin’ Time!
The 48 Hour Film Project is back in San Jose! On the weekend of Aug 8th, nearly two dozen filmmaking teams created new short films and they’ll be shown next week at the Camera 12 Cinema. Here’s a sneak peek. (That’s what we used to call the trailers. Now it’s just a trailer.) The filmmakers […]

It’s Never Too Early for a Fish Sandwich
Traffic Report: Yes, folk, stay at home. At least as long as THIS GUY is on the road! We’d consider that to be good advice under any weather conditions.
