Winning films commemorate CU Boulder at 150
Student filmmakers participating in the 150 Years of CU Boulder film competition had five minutes or fewer to tell a story from the university's expansive history
This year marks the 150th anniversary of the ³Ô¹ÏÍø of Colorado Boulder--a milestone that is inspiring both reflections on those first 150 years and visions of what the next 150 might bring.
To commemorate and celebrate CU Boulder's first 150 years, the Department of Cinema Studies and Moving Image Arts issued a challenge to students: Create a film that's three to five minutes long, incorporates archival material from ³Ô¹ÏÍø Colorado Publicity Collections and/or photographs from the CU Campus Building Collections and tells a story from CU Boulder's first 150 years.
The winning films by Doug Conway and Benjamin Albuisson incorporate both historical photos and videos, telling stories of a spot in Boulder, Colorado, where communities grew, where ideas flourished and where innovation with potential to change the world happened.
