There's A New Film Professor at Malone University.

This still was captured just last week on the set of new Film & Media Professor -- Sarah Hanssen's short film shoot -- HOW TO AVOID SEXUAL TEMPTATION.

If you're around Malone these days, you'll recognize junior Cale Short in the hazy background.  Cale has helped on several films this year and is putting finishing touches on one last submission. 

Sarah Hanssen joined our faculty this fall, and has been bringing much energy, excitement and talent to Malone.  She teaches our production sequence of courses, but also is committed to giving students a wide variety of opportunities to learn about the craft and profession of filmmaking. 

(For those of you who know him, yes, that's Josh Swain helping out with Cinematography on the set.)

Sarah comes to Malone from Pratt Institute in New York, and you can read a little bit more about her here.  Sarah's work with students, equipment and colleagues will all contribute to the positive developments in this year's Open Frame Film Fest.
