Last year’s planning committee designed a Film Society in order to supplement the general void on campus of showing “important” and “classic” films from the canon and to combat a general filmic illiteracy on campus. Each semester The Film Society will show 3 – 5 films thematically paneled, rotating across every four years in order to increase student filmic literacy.

The production contest was renamed as the production “workshops” this year and has taken a more developmental approach to student filmmakers. The vast majority of filmmakers this year are novice filmmakers (at least at Malone) and so we're trying to channel our best efforts into supporting their success.
