A BRIEF HISTORY
CC7D began in 2007 during a conversation over a couple of beers at
House of Rock. CCFS founder Frank Dascher and film-event cohort Barbara
Billings were discussing Frank's research into making Corpus Christi a 48 Hour Film Project city. Harboring the desire to
celebrate Coastal Bend filmmakers and with no ambition to be part of a
nationwide contest, they decided to rip off the 48 Hour Film Project instead, expanding the 48 hour
filming period to 7 days and relaxing some of the rules necessary for a
nationwide film contest.
2007 - Year One
Year One all went down at House of Rock. We knew there was trouble when 37 teams signed up. We outgrew our venue before the event started. The planned one night screening was switched to two nights to avoid fire code issues. 28 teams turned in films. Both nights were packed to the hilt. Overall it was an amazing start to the revolution.
2008 - Year Two
Bigger and better. The success rate (films turned in divided by teams signed up) increased, the overall quality of the films increased and our venue was a huge increase--The Harbor Playhouse. With more seats we screened all the films in one night. We added a band into the mix who played as we counted Audience Award ballots, Hobo.
Year Three and Beyond
Planning has begin on 2009, year three. Stay tuned.
CC7D will always be a work in progress as we stay
true to our those original goals: celebrate Coastal Bend Filmmakers;
recognize regional excellence behind and in front of the camera.
AWARDS
Jury Awards: Every year a Jury is selected to
pick the best films and performances. A local certified CPA handles the
ballots and delivers the winner envelopes to the CC7D Screening and Award
Ceremony. The jury chooses their Grand Jury Winner and the Honorable
Mention Winner. In addition, the Jury picks the winners in the following
categories: Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best
Supporting Actress, and Best Technical Execution.
Audience Award: Every year the audience at the CC7D Screening
picks their favorite films via balloted vote. Many filmmakers believe this
award is the most exciting to receive.
Filmmakers' Award: Every year the Team Leaders present at the CC7D Screening
picks their favorite film via balloted vote. They may not vote for their own.
CC7D Props: Every year the CC7D Steering Committee, after
reviewing the films and wrap up information, gives out special 'props'. The props and what they recognize are unknown and may change
from year to year.
