concept
Though bringing a group of young filmmakers together to form this sort of co-op
was unique in itself, Scott knew a unifying theme would be necessary to package
this collection of short films as one project. He decided to spread the project out
over the course of a year. Twelve filmmakers would be hand-picked and
assigned a month. Each director’s story would be expected to take place during
that month and be produced during that month. The writer/director would also be
encouraged to try crafting a story that embodied the energy and sentiment of
his/her unique month.
