Middle School Films Selected for Teen Screen
Two films produced by Athens Academy students, Superman Saves the Day and True Love, have been selected to screen during Teen Screen, a non-competition sidebar of the 31st Annual Atlanta Film Festival, April 19-28, 2007. The films were produced last year by eighth graders Lisa Sheppard, Blake Sinyard, Hays Sligh, Thomas Sanders, Emily O'Rear, Elizabeth Boswell, Madison Linck, Max Schein, Lillian Jones, Taylor Williams, Jeremy Burgess, and Caroline Lewis.
Throughout January, February, and March, a screening committee comprised of local film and video makers, programmers, curators, and media professionals screened hundreds of submissions from across the country and made their selections for this festival. The Teen Screen films will be shown at Landmark Midtown Art Cinema from Monday, April 23-Friday, April 27.
