One of the new events in Davis for 2026 is a competition, led by a Davis marine biologist whose awards include an Emmy for his camera work, that’s open to anyone willing to make a short movie during the next month. The film must include a Davis-centric prompt to be announced this Wednesday, Jan. 28, and run no longer than 7 minutes. You’ll have about 4 weeks to get it all done.
The goal of the Davis Flash Film Challenge “is just to get people to make movies,” says Craig Musburger on today’s Davisville.“We really want to help kind of build on the creative community of Davis and the surrounding area.”
Musburger is president of Everywhere Science, a Davis nonprofit, but the movies don’t have to use science as their subject. He says he won’t be surprised to see superheroes or romantic comedies among the entries. As long as the entry doesn’t exceed the bounds of a PG-13 rating, “anything goes and everybody’s welcome.”
