Need for Swede 01!



Introducing Need for Swede; South Africa's first DIY blockbuster remake super-jam!

Across August, September and October, Rebel Alliance will focus on curating and presenting hand-made homages to Hollywood hits, in the style of Michel Gondry's "Be Kind Rewind".

Need for Swede is an open event. All sweded films will be shown on in the month they're received. Our favourite swede's from August will roll over to be re-screened at next month's installment. After our final event in October, fans will be able to
vote fore their favourite swede through Another Day. The team behind this winning remake wins a massive hamper of awesome from a selection of the finest DIY brands in South Africa.

NEED FOR SWEDE RULES:
1) Keep it under 5 minutes.
2) No post production - do all your special effects in-camera!

GUIDELINES:

1) Take what you like, mix it with some other things and make a new thing!
2) Use what you have!
3) Bring it home!
4) Have fun!

Sweding is fun and easy! It embraces the human element; there's no such thing as a "mistake" in a swede!
