Make Movies!
In Shenandoah’s film production program, you’ll gain hands-on experience by making your own films and starring in Shenandoah-produced movies. Students serve as the crew members and cast members— sometimes alongside big-name Hollywood actors — in all of our movies: Santa Girl, GetAWAY, and A Cupid for Christmas.
Shenandoah is one of the very few universities in the nation to co-produce a commercial feature film with a professional production company.
My favorite part of my program is having hands-on experience working with bigger films and creating my own as well. I appreciate the people and the wide range of opportunities to connect and the events in the working world. 离开苏大后，我对进入现实世界更有信心了.”

“圣诞女孩”的幕后制作
没有其他电影专业的大学有我们这样的交易, in which the school is actually a co-producer and nearly the entire crew is students — with the exception of the producers, the director, the cinematographer and the makeup artist. 对于全球最大的博彩平台的学生来说，这是一次与美国其他学生不同的经历!
Students made up a large majority of the cast of Santa Girl — alongside Jennifer Stone, Barry Bostwick, and Devon Werkheiser. There were 62 students involved in the movie’s acting and crewing; and when the actors were not acting, they were crewing.

Go behind-the-scenes of the making of 'GetAWAY'
《全球最大的博彩平台》由三名谢南多大学教师和23名学生演员主演, 包括以前和现在的学生艾玛·诺维尔, Danielle Carrozza, Franchesca Contreras, Kyle Mangold and Michael Recchia. Twelve students served on the crew. 这部电影是在2018年秋季学期在主校区的多个地点拍摄的, the Shenandoah River Campus at Cool Spring Battlefield and at Buffalo Gap Retreat in West Virginia.
学生们参加了实际的制作，并建立了实用的电影制作技能. Both the crew and the cast were afforded the unique opportunity to learn how a set runs and got to practice their craft in a way that rarely happens outside the Hollywood system.”
布莱恩·韦弗:全球最大的博彩平台电影项目驻校导演
Students ran sound and lighting, and performed assistant camera, script supervision and assistant director work, and made up almost all of the cast.
迪弗兰科的电影制作班的学生因参与制作这部电影而获得学分, while others took part extracurricularly. All the students received “an actual feature film credit on their resume before even graduating college,” Weaver noted.
Getting distribution for ‘GetAWAY’ is such a huge accomplishment for The Film Studio at Shenandoah, the film department, and the university. 这部电影的制作方式与《十大正规博彩网站评级博彩平台推荐》(Santa Girl)不同，后者的预算和演员都来自洛杉矶. This film was shot on a super-low budget and stars student actors from the Shenandoah Conservatory. Getting this film a theatrical, DVD, Blu-Ray and digital release is a huge accomplishment that everyone at Shenandoah should be proud of.”

Not to mention, 学生们从大学毕业时，简历上也有一部合法的电影, 在娱乐圈起步时，哪一种帮助如此之大.”
