Wayne State has hosted the Moving Media Student Film Festival for several years, focusing primarily on work produced by WSU students. This year's festival runs May 22-24. Given the re-emergence of the film industry in Michigan, we've opened up our festival to students throughout the region. Madonna University, University of Windsor, Eastern Michigan University, Lawrence Technological University and the College for Creative Studies were invited to participate; entering up to 3 works in each of 5 categories: documentary, narrative, animation, music and experimental film. Regional experts working in the film industry and/or academia will adjudicate the submissions.
