Student film makers rewarded at festival
By PAMELA SPINGLER
Staff writer
More than 30 people took home awards from the Kansas 125th Celebration Student Film Festival this weekend in Dyche Auditorium. -Film makers ranging from elementary school age to college age participated in the festival, which attracted about 150 people.
Marj Dusay, actress on the daytime serial "Capitol" and chairman of the festival, was one of the judges for the competition. She said the festival was a way to bring more interest and excitement to the film industry.
Jerry Jones, coordinator of the Kansas Film Commission, said he thought the festival was a success.
"It encourages film making," he said yesterday. "In the long run, the small film makers will become big film makers and return to shoot films in Kansas."
Other judges were Doug Curts, producer/director of "The Philadelphia Experiment" and "Black Moon Rising"; Carol Littleton, editor of "The Big Chill," "Body Heat" and "E.T."; and Peter
"It gives the students a forum for their creativity. It's nice for them to see audience reaction."
Wooley, art designer for "The Day After," "Sounder" and "Blazing Saddles."
Steven Roberts, Overland Park junior, won second place in the original/experimental division for college and university students, for his film, "Drive." He said he entered the contest because he wanted constructive criticism on his film.
"After making it I wanted some reaction," he said. With a $20 budget and a borrowed camera, Glassey shot his film, "A Macabre Little Tail" in one marathon evening, adding that he made the film for the experience.
"When you accept an award and shake hands with people who are in the business and who are telling you to keep it up, you get really motivated," Glassey said. "It gives you something to work for."
"I was getting the chance to actually show my work to people who are in the industry," he said. "I didn't expect to make a finalist, and winning second is still winning."
Jake Glassey, Lawrence senior, placed second in the narrative category for the college and university division. In the category, films had no dialogue, only narration.
