I’m incredibly proud of the work I do at Glendale Community College and the students I work with in the Film, TV and Media Arts Department. We were excited LAist reporter Julia Barajas spent some time with us and spoke with past and present students about the FTVM student trip to the Sundance Film Festival.
Below is the LAist story on our students attending Sundance supported by a grant we won from the Glendale College Foundation to pay for them to go!
