2010 STUDENT FILM FESTIVAL
The 5th ANNUAL STUDENT FILM FESTIVAL
GREENPORT THEATRE
August 15, 2010
The classic, art-deco Greenport Theatre was once again host to the Festival’s standing-room only crowds, including filmmakers and their families, as well as many community members who have continued to experience the festivals over the years. Volunteers sold T-shirts and handed out programs and tickets, which doubled as ballots, so that the audience could vote for the “Audience Favorite”.

2009 Student Film Festival
Our Fourth Annual Festival on August 17, 2009 was a huge success, drawing filmmakers, their families and many community film lovers to fill the Greenport Theatre to overflow capacity!
The kick-off, was a presentation of the collaborative piece which was the result of the summer’s claymation/animation classes in July and August. With the help of mentors and professionals who visited our studio, “The 2nd Greatest Show on Earth” was premiered to enthusiastic response.
We are also pleased to acknowledge that the Filmmaking Boot Camp resulted in 8 young students submitting finalist films.
Thanks to our great instructors: Ellen Nora Goldstein and Rory MacNish, and of course the many volunteers who made up the support team.
Students! Start planning your script for next year’s submissions now!
2008 Student Film Festival
Our third annual festival was a success! With over 200 filmmakers, family members, friends, and movie stars in the audience, 24 films were showcased on the silver screen. With entries from our youngest filmmaker, at 7 years of age, to our esteemed college competitors, commercials, PSAs, documentaries, dramas, and music videos were highly applauded.
A good time was had by all, as can be seen here:
An interview corner was set up for the filmmakers to discuss both the pleasures and difficulties of filmmaking, and their hopes and dreams for future films.
Our youngest filmmaker, Clark Vines (7), is interviewed about his film “The Guy Who Burped at Dinner”.
Our presenters, Tara Evans and Paul Henry, conference quickly before opening remarks.
