Tigerville may not be Hollywood, but NGU students have the opportunity to walk the red carpet with up-and-coming film producers. The Red Carpet Film Festival is being sponsored by the Department of Communication and will take place in Turner Chapel this Thursday, April 7.
At last year�s Red Carpet Film Festival, a film produced by NGU professor Shurajit Gopal debuted and has been featured as promotional material for the university. This year�s event will feature media produced by students around the country from high schoolers to graduate school students. The media shown will include everything from short films to commercials.
This year�s Red Carpet Film Festival will be hosted by world-renowned producer Phil Cooke. Cooke has produced media for worldwide audiences. He started Cooke Pictures in 1991. Cooke is also a philanthropist who has used his medium to promote organizations which work towards social justice.
Students should arrive at 3:30 p.m. to be seated in the auditorium. Come dressed to impress and receive cultural event credit. Like the event�s Facebook page to keep up with the latest details.
