Breakout Challenge Results Are In!

The Criteria

We skipped the traditional Prop, Line, and Genre criteria. Instead, we want to inspire your team by providing you with just a THEME. What is a theme you ask? It is the underlying message of your film, separate from your story, genre, and dialog. It is the heart of any story. In addition to a film, teams were required to deliver a trailer, digital artwork, and marketing materials too.
