Kudos to Dan for doing this page, and for letting us know about Alum events like this one. As a proud UA media alum myself, I would have been pleased to be included -- give a call sometime, eh, Wildcats? ;)
All UA media alum are welcome at the Saturday, April 15 ShortFest (here in Tucson), where other UA alum will screen films, and UA media alum Marlowe Weisman will talk in the afternoon filmmaker's seminar. (Marlowe is curently an Emmy nominee). Sundance winner Dick Fisher wil also speak, among others!
Thank you for all your hard work, Dan! Shoot film, not people! :)
