International Campus MovieFest Comes to Rollins

January 30, 2006

Campus MovieFest is poised to hit campus, and the Office of Student Involvement and Leadership is looking to recruit 50 to 70 teams to take part in a movie-making competition. Each team will be comprised of five to 10 faculty, staff and students.

Campus MovieFest, created by students at Emory University in 2000, has grown into the world’s largest student movie-making event. This year, Rollins is one of only two participating colleges or universities in the state of Florida and among 15 from around the world.

During the week of February 13 to 17, representatives from Campus Movie Fest will supply digital video cameras, laptop computers and a technical support staff to would-be filmmakers. At the conclusion of the week, each team's five-minute short film will be judged by a panel, and four films will receive awards in the following categories: Best Comedy, Best Drama, Best Documentary and Best Picture.

Winners will be awarded prizes and have the opportunity to move on to a national competition. Additionally, all the Rollins winners will be showcased during Campus MovieNite, a Hollywood style premiere night on February 22.
