TFS – Festival of Films Wrap Up
We are pleased to congratulate all the participants in the 1st Annual Festival of Films! The festival received a great turn out with a ton of support for our extremely talented students. Friends, family, faculty, industry professionals, and even some AMC Cineplex moviegoers attended our two screenings and the awards ceremony that followed. Viewers were presented with documentaries, music videos, PSA/Commercials and short films that featured the skills and creativity of students in the Acting, Film Production and Writing for Film/TV programs. It is incredibly rewarding to see the hard work our students produce up on the big screen. Let’s hear it for our winners!
