Founded in 1994, the Five College Student Film and Video Festival is an annual event featuring original films and videos by Five College students. The festival has become an important venue for film students to meet, collaborate and share their productions with their peers and with the Five College film community.
Students from each of the Five Colleges organize the festival with the assistance of a Student Director from the host college and a faculty advisor. The festival, which is sponsored by the Five College Film Council, is held each year during the Spring semester. Submissions are evaluated by a jury of students and faculty members from each campus. Selected works are shown at the festival and awards are given.
The venue for the Five College Student Film and Video Festival rotates each year. Updated information about this annual event can be found at this link: Five College Student Film and Video Festival
2023 Festival Program is Announced!
Please join us on Saturday, April 1 in Amherst College’s Stirn Auditorium for the Five College Film Festival, to be held in person for the first time in four years. A group of ten student jurors from across the five colleges have carefully curated three programs of shorts that represent some of the best filmmaking across the Five Colleges.
This year, as many years past, the Five College Film Festival’s mission is to share the stories of students from across the Five Colleges through the medium of film. We encourage all students, regardless of background or experience with filmmaking, to share their stories.
If you have any questions please feel free to email 5collegefilmfestival@gmail.com.
