CSULB Films Represent Half of The Finalists For The 2022 CSU Media Arts Festival
Year after year the CSU Media Arts Festival receives numerous film submissions from the CSU system consisting of 23 campuses. The CSU Summer Arts established the Media Arts Festival in 1991 to give talented students studying film, broadcasting, video, screenwriting, and new media within the 23-campus California State University system an opportunity to present their work for critical review. In 2000, the Media Arts Festival further expanded to include events focused on helping prepare CSU students to work in the entertainment industry.
This year half of the finalists for the CSU Media Arts Festival are from the Film & Electronic Arts Department and School of Art Animation program at CSULB. Below is a list of the twelve finalists who will screen their films.
The 2022 MAF Finalists’ projects will be available for screening Friday, October 21 through Tuesday, October 25, 2022.
