Cinema Pacific at UO

This May the University of Oregon will host the first annual Cinema Pacific festival.

The festival will showcase films and new media from Pacific-bordering countries and will focus on a different country each year. This year Korea will be featured.

The festival will also include the Adrenaline Film Project, in which 10-15 groups of students and community members will have 72 hours to complete short films under the guidance of professional filmmakers. The completed projects will be shown at the end of the festival and will compete for awards.

Festival Director Richard Herskowitz, who teaches Arts and Administration at U of O, previously organized the Virginia Film Festival before moving to Oregon.

The festival runs from May 5th through the 9th around Eugene and online. For more information visit the Cinema Pacific Web site or contact the administrators at cinemapacific@uoregon.edu.
