Students Win Film Internships

During the summer Cody Mc Intyre and Rebecca St. John were accepted into the Youth Documentary Academy. They worked closely with Tom Shepard, Eva Brzeski, and Aaron Burns (famous documentary film makers) for six weeks creating their own documentary. They are now entering into film festivals in town and their films will be featured on youthdocumentaryacademy.org.

Rebecca's film was accepted into the Women's Film Festival.  She was also awarded a paid internship at the Youth Documentary Academy for the 2016 summer session.
