People sometimes wonder what the relationship between UNA and the film festival is. First, UNA is the festival's parent organization, and the film festival is just one of the cultural opportunities the University provides for its students, employees, and the wider community. The festival is also an extension of our film students' education; among other experiences, the festival gives them many opportunities to interact with other filmmakers, both student and professional.
UNA's film program has grown significantly over the past few years, as have the roles students have taken on with the film festival. The film program was recently named #1 among film schools by Reelshow International. We like to think all that work with the George Lindsey UNA Film Festival had something to do with that recognition, even though we're pretty sure it was the result of excellent students learning from top notch faculty. Either way, the film students will be seen working throughout the festival, and we hope folks take a few moments to congratulate them on their achievements. And remember those names; we are going to be seeing a lot of them on the big screen in the future!
