Point Park University: 2017 Cinema Showcase & Alumni Reception

On Wednesday, May 17th at 7:00pm, the Cinema Arts Department of Point Park University is Proud to Present the LA Showcase Screening of the Award-Winning Student Films for 2016-17 at the Harmony Gold Screening House followed by an Alumni Reception.

About the Cinema Student Showcase

The Cinema Arts Department hosts a Los Angeles Showcase to introduce students to the film and television industries while showcasing their work to industry professionals.

Each year, the Department holds a Cinema Showcase Competition, from which five to six films are selected for the Showcase Screening, and 12 student filmmakers are selected to participate in the Showcase trip to Los Angeles. The films are given an LA premiere, with industry professionals. Cinema Arts alumni are invited to attend the screening.

The student filmmakers spend four days in Hollywood visiting TV sound stages, studios, and visual effects and post-production houses. They meet with agents, managers, executives at studios and television networks, and are given one-on-one mentorship by professional producers, writers, and cinematographers.

Students also connect with Cinema Arts alumni who are established in the field through social functions and on-site visits.
