In January 2022, selected George Fox students are traveling to the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. The festival is widely regarded as the most prestigious annual showcase for new work from American and international independent filmmakers.

Alongside the Sundance Festival, our students will also be attending the Windrider Forum, a venue for conversations about the intersections of faith and film.

The tentative dates for the trip are Jan. 23-29. Attending students will be required to notify professors in advance of anticipated absences and create appropriate academic work plans. Personal costs for students will be approximately $975 (not including food and incidentals), depending on airline and lodging costs.

You do not need to be a cinematic arts or communication major to attend. Applications from all full-time George Fox undergraduate students will be considered, but we will be limited to traveling with approximately 10 selected students.

Applications received by Wednesday, April 28, will receive first consideration. You can apply at this link.

During the Spring 2022 semester, CMCO 285/485, a selected topics course, will be offered on “Independent Cinema,” and will connect to the Sundance trip experience. Students will have the option (it is not a requirement) to register for this course to receive credit connected to the Sundance and later semester experiences.
