THE ATLANTA FILM SOCIETY AND KODAK FILM LAB PRESENT THE 100 FEET FILM PROJECT
ATLANTA, GA (August 25, 2025)—The Atlanta Film Society (ATLFS) and Kodak are partnering to present the 100 Feet of Film Project. This project allows a team of filmmakers to maximize their creativity while minimizing the need for reshooting. Through this project, filmmakers will learn to effectively and efficiently shoot on a limited reel of film stock and, in the process, must focus on the fundamentals of filmmaking.
A maximum of 35 teams can register. Participating filmmakers will receive 100 feet of film stock and approximately 3 months to shoot. In October-November, one team member may participate in an Introduction to 16mm Film workshop presented by Kodak. In January, one member from each team will have the opportunity to visit the Kodak film processing lab in Atlanta as they turn in their film stock to be processed. Raw footage will be delivered as a digital file in January, and filmmakers will have approximately one month to edit their final film.
All participating films will screen at the Plaza Theatre on Saturday, February 21st. Following this screening, two films will be chosen as winners. The winning films will screen at the 2026 Atlanta Film Festival. Space is limited. The final deadline for signups is Friday, October 22, 2025, or once the maximum number of teams has been reached.
