The films for the Spring 2016 Student Film and Video Show have been selected. All of the selected filmmakers have been contacted. Competition was very stiff as there were many great films submitted. In the interest of keeping the running time of the show reasonable, the faculty jury was not able to program all of the films they wanted to. If your film was not selected, please do not be discouraged. The School is planning two additional student film shows for the next school year – one in the Fall and one in Winter – and your film may be programmed for one of those shows.
Thank you to all of the students who submitted films. If you have any questions, please direct them to Prof. Morrow at morrow4@pdx.edu.
The Student Film and Video Show is scheduled to begin at 7:00pm on Friday, June 3rd, in Lincoln Hall room 75. The screening is free and open to the public.
