Asian American Film Lab
The Asian American Film Lab (“AAfilmlab” or “AAFL”) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. We began as collaborative of New York-based filmmakers whose goals are to hone their craft and to share their knowledge, experience and resources. The membership has grown and is comprised of professionals, artists, and talented individuals who all share the common goal of creating great film and to promote Asian American filmmakers and the visibility of their stories and characters in film and television.
72 Hour Film Shootout
The 72 Hour Film Shootout (“Shootout”) is a nationwide competition organized by AAfilmlab where filmmaking teams have 72 hours to write, shoot, edit and produce short films up to five minutes in length on a common theme. The intention of this competition is to create opportunities for Asian Americans to demonstrate their talent, gain exposure in the entertainment industry and to impact the visibility of Asian American stories and characters in film and television. At least one key production member and a lead actor from each team must be of Asian descent.
