In March, we sent a group of girls to the All Femme Film Festival during the annual NFFTY (National Film Festival for Talented Youth) conference in Seattle. While there, the girls got one on one time with 18 different industry professionals to discuss future careers and how they can improve their craft. Kaleah Westergarde earned an Honorable Mention for her film, "Help Me Eli." Congrats Kaleah!

It's competition season so students are hard at work readying their photography and films for submission to various festivals around the state. Stay tuned for more of their work soon!
