Newsflash

Edinburgh Movie Production Society (EMPS) held its annual 24 hour movie competition last weekend.

Competitors had 24 hours to write, film and produce a short film of between two and six minutes long.

At the launch of the competition at the Filmhouse, it was announced that films had to be on the theme of ‘betrothal’ and must include a boot and the line “hold your breath, I promise this will be fun.”

20 people took part in the competition.

Charlotte Lelong, president of EMPS said, “this is the most accessible competition we put on every year. Everyone’s welcome, we provide equipment and opportunity to meet new people. It’s also completely free.”

The winning video was announced at the EMPS wrap party ceilidh in Teviot on Monday night.
