Day 1, being a more hands-on day, will take you deeper into what our Film and Television Production students experience in their classrooms. The workshops orchestrated by the CCFF Producing Team will go behind the scenes and show you what it takes to make a film shown at Controlled Chaos. Panels are a great opportunity to hear experiences and advice from accomplished filmmakers; this year, we are hosting Veronica Bouza, Kevin Cagnolatti, and many more. We finish the night off with a screening of films created by our talented Film and Television Production Students.

Day 2 highlights and celebrates all the hard work our students and faculty have put in over the past year. In the Josefina Niggli Theater, a reception will be held to celebrate our guests’ and filmmakers’ accomplishments. This event is invite-only. If interested, please reach out to the Bardo Box Office. Following is a screening in the Bardo Performance Hall and an award ceremony for our selected films.
