Student film summit recipients announced
LAKE PLACID — Adirondack Film recently announced this year’s recipients of the Lake Placid Film Festival Student Summit Program.
College students and recent graduates from across the country applied for entry to the 2024 program. As part of the scholarship, recipients will attend the 2024 Lake Placid Film Festival — slated Nov. 7-10 — in a highly specialized program of educational panels and exclusive film screenings. Recipients will also receive complimentary room, board and festival passes courtesy of Adirondack Film and its sponsors.
“Since its inception, Adirondack Film has been committed to furthering film education in the Adirondack and upstate New York regions. The student summit program was a massive success last year in providing students with ample opportunities to network and grow their filmmaking craft without the financial burden that typically comes with attending a film festival,” said Adirondack Film Outreach and Education Coordinator Noah Ramer. “The continuation of this program is further evidence of Adirondack Film’s mission to furthering film education in the region and state through a variety of initiatives.”
These education outreach initiatives include a discounted festival pass for college students and the continued celebration of student filmmakers through “Your Shorts Are Showing” programming during the festival.
