Everyone is invited to a screening of new work by students
in the Ballard High School Digital Filmmaking Program. The
Ballard Film Festival (BFF) will
be on Friday, February 10 at 7 pm in the Ballard High School auditorium. The screening will feature short comedies and
dramas, advertisements, and documentaries.
Tickets ($10 for adults and $5 for students) will be sold at the
door.
Films that first screen at the BFF frequently win honors at
prestigious national and international film festivals as well as awards from
the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. BHS film students hit the ground running this
fall with 10 Official Selections in the national All American High School Film
Festival, awards from the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for
Best Music Video and Best Editing, and winners at Fresh Film Northwest -
including the documentary Living Honestly
by PJ Hase and Skala Leake. This will
have its Seattle premiere at the Ballard Film Festival.
Funds raised will benefit students in the Digital
Filmmaking Program. This year, Ballard High School’s Digital Filmmaking
Program was one of 5 production programs from across the nation selected by the
All American High School Film Festival in New York City to produce
documentaries for IMAX. Big screen
distribution sets a high bar for production values. Your support will put the right tools in the
hands of students so they can complete these productions in style.
