Fall 2020 media showcase
Welcome to the Fall 2020 Comm Arts showcase! The following projects represent the hard work of students who overcame an unprecedented challenge to their semester. These achievements are all the more extraordinary for being created under such compromised circumstances. Thanks to the dedication of the students, faculty, TAs, and staff who banded together to reimagine how films can be produced when group gatherings are restricted, we are able to provide this inspiring collection of cinema online. Enjoy and be safe!
