Project Update
Another successful Media Night at Dawson College. The show was sold out with an audience of students, alumni, faculty and family members. There was over two hours of videos screened in the categories of Narrative, Documentary and Experimental, which were judged by alumni and current Concordia student Nancy Pettinicchio. She was joined by faculty member Jesse Hunter and Ameesha Joshi a professional filmmaker who’s current film With This Ring is on the film festival circuit.
The lobby of the Dawson Theatre had an installation from Riesa Levine’s Media and Society class, a mise-en-scene installation from Dipti Gupta’s class and a display of posters from Ramona’s Media Lab class.
Overall the event was a great achievement organized and programmed by the students, with seven awards given to students for their achievement in the craft of video making.
