Do you love movies? Do you like free things? Are you a UVA student? WELL. From October 27 to the 31, UVA students get FREE tickets to several amazing shows at the 2021 Virginia Film Festival at VirginiaFilmFestival.org. So, before you listen, go snag a couple tickets before they sell out! This festival is the largest cultural event in the Mid-Atlantic and happens every year. So if you can’t make it to the 2021 Festival, no fear! The 2022 program will surely amaze as well.
I had the amazing opportunity to speak with Chandler Ferrebee who is a Program Director for the festival. She has a lot of amazing insight about what goes into making a festival happen, the fantastic opportunities she’s had, as well as some advice for those who are interested in the film industry. So without further ado, let’s start!
