PEOPLE

More accolades for film students: two student films have been selected to be screened in international film festivals!

Ann Marie, by junior Laura Grobholtz, and In Time, by seniors Brooks Reehl and Will Colavito, were selected for both the First-Time Filmmakers Session and the Frame by Frame Film Fest. In Time was also previously chosen to be part of the Horror Lust Film Festival.

The Frame by Frame is a film festival that seeks to spotlight student filmmakers working with animation, editing and special effects to enhance their story telling and is open to high school-aged students all around the world. Only 55 student films were selected from all of the entries.

The screening and awards ceremony was streamed earlier this month. The full festival can be watched on Facebook.

The First-Time Filmmaker Sessions is a monthly online showcase, dedicated to screening the monthly collection of globally submitted indie shorts and features. Films are screened at the famous Pinewood Studios in England.
