Film, Media, and Arts Festival 2024

On Monday, June 3rd, the hallways of LIHSA were buzzing with excitement as Visual Arts students welcomed friends and family to LIHSA’s Film, Media, & Art Festival. In addition to amazing portraits, paintings, collages, and drawings from Visual Arts students, guests enjoyed a film festival featuring the work of Multimedia TV& Film, 3D Animation, and Game Design students. Original songs, soundtracks, and scores were created by Audio Production students.

The event was a celebration of the Media Arts students and their outstanding work this year. The evening culminated in a discussion panel with students from all programs facilitated by Erik Chocianowski. The students discussed their inspirations, challenges, techniques, and process with the audience who had time to ask their own questions.

Congratulations to the spectacular teachers who prepared these students not only for this event, but for careers in the arts. Thank you Erik Chocianowski, Jason Cuvelier, Chris Fedorczak, Mike Minerva, Robyn Morgan, and Nicole Tourt! The event was truly one to remember.
