For Actors
Actors must submit through our official Casting Frontier casting call to be considered for participation.
Due to the overwhelming response of 300+ submissions, we are unable to accommodate every applicant. A limited number of actors will be invited to participate based on their Casting Frontier submission.
Selected actors will receive an email with their assigned audition time. This is not an open casting call, and actors without a confirmed invitation and scheduled audition time will not be admitted.
For Filmmakers
Attendance is limited to registered 2026 Los Angeles 48 Hour Film Project Team Leaders.
This is your opportunity to meet talented actors, discover new collaborators, and begin assembling your cast before the 48 Hour Film Project begins.
We're thrilled to bring this event back after a six-year hiatus and can't wait to see the creative partnerships that begin here.
