CCFF Returns to Lansing

Hey there cinephiles. It’s been a minute.

We’re thrilled to announce the return of the Capital City Film Festival, happening April 12-15 throughout Lansing.

Last year’s festival drew thousands of people to the capital city for Michigan-made and international films, lively discussions with filmmakers and diverse nightly entertainment.

This year, CCFF is all that and then some. TEDxLansing, an independently organized TED conference highlighting “ideas worth spreading” joins the CCFF line-up. MSU’s Media Sandbox welcomes Ben Fry and Jared Cocken. But that’s not all.

The Fortnight Film Contest gives filmmakers two weeks to create a short film with designated elements for a chance to win $3,500 in cash prizes. The contest begins March 23 and registration opens soon. Build your team now.
