CUNUFF would like to thank those who attended our animation workshop with London Squared, sponsored [in part] by the Arts Initiative at Columbia University. This funding is made possible through a generous gift from The Gatsby Foundation.

With judges Jennifer Elster (In The Woods, BELIEF) and Jamal Josephs (August Rush), the event was a fantastic showcase of seven student independent films which ranged from horror to heartfelt comedy.
