Hartland High School Hosts Student Film Festival

There will be a red carpet and a blooper reel with 30 movies in-between.

Today, will host its first-ever film festival of student produced short features to help raise money for the drama club.

The event begins with the red carpet event at 11 a.m. outside the auditorium and the movies will start at noon and run in five hourlong batches with 10 minutes of intermissions in-between until the bloopers wrap up the event near 6 p.m.

"Each student (in theater class) had to create their own film to be presented at the auditorium on the big screen," said Miranda Keskes, a Hartland High School teacher who is the sponsor of the drama club.

In all there will be more than 30 student films that include a silent drama The Key of Silence by Lexee Longwell, a documentary-feel comedy Ray Ray by Paul Townsend and slapstick horror Clourophobia by Alyssa Caswell. Click on the attached PDF for a complete schedule.

"There really is something for everyone to see," Keskes said.

The cost is free and the club will raise money by selling concessions during the intermissions.
