四月初, 16 沃拉沃拉大学 film students attended the Sonscreen Film Festival in Loma Linda, 加州. This annual film festival is sponsored by the North American Division of 基督复临安息日会s, and serves as a connection hub where students and young professionals can meet with peers and established filmmakers.
高级的电影, TV, and media major Krista VanHook’s dramatic short film, “味道”, was screened Saturday evening, 后面跟着一个Q&A与她和观众. She 说 much of her preparation for this was spent in prayer: “I wanted to make sure that I was opening myself up fully to being used by God, and not letting my ego get in the way of that when I got on stage.”
Friday evening included a film premiere of “Color of Threads,”a 沃拉沃拉大学 short-film written by WWU alumna Josie Henderson. This film was made possible by the collaboration of several film professionals and WWU students. 萨曼莎·霍奇斯, 小电影, TV, and media major who worked on the film, 说, “My absolute favorite part of the festival was watching the final product on the big screen … seeing how it touched so many people truly inspired me.”
Hodges 说 this trip showed her the diverse job opportunities within film, and it was a great chance for networking: she connected with Kristina Daley, an assistant director for “The Chosen,” while Vanhook met John Quinn, 《网上博彩澳门银河》的主编,” who agreed to be a guest speaker on her podcast. Both girls also built relationships with other Adventist 大学 film students.
“Sonscreen is so valuable to me as a Christian because being a person of faith who wants to enter into a largely secular industry can feel so isolating at times,范胡克说。. She appreciates how this festival serves as a gathering place for people who are both Christians and creatives. She recalls her favorite part was the opportunity to be surrounded by so much art made by such wonderful artists; she adds Sonscreen is an event that never disappoints.
