From Script to Screen!

Tenth Year Anniversary

2 Days Later began in 2003 and is a short horror film competition specifically designed to encourage filmmakers, enthusiasts and students to produce a 10 minute horror film in only 48 hours on a micro-budget. All competition entries are shown to a public audience, and judged by a panel of film industry professionals, competing for film industry donated prizes at a special Halloween Screening Event in Margate. Winning submissions will also receive global website exposure and international promotion to other film festivals and film industry organisations.

“It’s a rare and free opportunity for budding filmmakers to actually see how an audience reacts to their work in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere” encourages Festival Co-Director Mick Etherton

Over 300 films have so far been made for Kent’s biggest film festival event that actually generates specific film production for its very own competition screening.
