The Tally 48 is a filmmaking competition held in Tallahassee, where teams conceptualize, shoot, edit, and deliver short films within a 48-hour timeframe. This event challenges participants' creativity and technical skills under time constraints. All submitted films are typically screened locally, often at venues like the Challenger Learning Center IMAX. It is part of a broader trend of "48 Hour Film Project" style competitions, which are annual events in various cities where filmmakers produce short films based on assigned elements, with city winners advancing to a festival called Filmapalooza.
