Interview Reflection
I really enjoyed interviewing the Take21 Student Film
Festival’s art director, James Schultz. He provided insightful information
about the improvements he wishes to apply to this festival. It is for young
filmmakers, ages 12-21, and he hopes the festival will soon be student-run as
well. He was very interested with Visions and wants to learn more about how, as a student-run festival, manage and organize it. After our talk, he said he wishes to stay in contact with us at Visions
and to perhaps build a partnership.
This week, I researched universities with film programs
along the East coast. Since Visions partnered with the University of Florida, I
was inspired to partner with another far-distant school. The only issue with
the northern university is our limited budget. I am hoping we can raise more
funds in order to make visiting Drexel University (PA) or Champlain College
(VT) a possibility. However, the more reasonable potential partner schools I
found are the University of South Carolina Columbia, University of North
Carolina School of Arts, and George Mason University. The Virginia Commonwealth
University is another option I would like to consider, but I believe we have
partnered with the school before for another Visions. I will continue to build
on my research and perhaps find a suitable partner school that is both
(somewhat) distant, but within a reasonable budget.
