Geneseo Students Participate in 4th Annual Insomnia Film Festival

On Tuesday, April 21st GREAT Day, students participated in the Insomnia Film festival, spearheaded by Joe Dolce, in the CIT Department. The insomnia film festival presents an opportunity for students to create a short witty and interesting video under three minutes long, that coincides with the themes and guidelines presented.

Twenty teams participated this year, and students learned how to edit, create, and film video. This gave students an opportunity to work on a team, practice their acting skills, and learn more about digital media in the process. Teams compete for a spot in the top three, who win prizes such as book store credit and amazon gift card funds. However, every insomniac knows that their participation isn't about winning prizes, but about enjoying the experience of working closely with others, editing a video, and enjoying all the creative fun moments in between.

Mr. I and Mr. Rivera were a part of the judges for the event, and enjoyed being part of a band, led by Professor Glenn McClure in the English Department.

What an amazing experience this was!
