BCC Media Technology and Film Society
The Communication Arts & Sciences Department Media Technology and Film Society (MTFS) meets during BCC Club Hours in Meister Hall C02A. Here students with a passion for movies can share their love of film and get a chance to participate as paid production assistants on major motion pictures and television shows filmed on campus. (Productions have included Burn After Reading, A Beautiful Mind, the Good Shepherd, Maid in Manhattan, and numerous episodes of Law and Order.) MTFS members also produce their own short films and videos for the annual BCC Film and Video Festival and enter them into national and international film festivals. Guest speakers from across the spectrum of the media industry – directors, writers, camera operators – are regularly invited to the club to discuss their area of expertise. Members also take field trips to television/film studios and film labs.
All interested students who wish to join the Media Technology and Film Society should contact the faculty advisor, Prof. Jeffrey Wisotsky (Meister Hall C02, 718.289.5572, Jeffrey.wisotsky@bcc.cuny.edu).
