Film series to showcase all forms of the medium

Local film enthusiasts have a chance to expand their knowledge of the medium without leaving the area. Over the next month, a group of filmmakers will show and discuss their work at Cayuga Community College.

Sponsored by the Schweinfurth Art Center, “Making Movies: A Contemporary Film and Video Series” at Cayuga Community College begins tonight. Every Thursday, a new film or video artist from around the state will hold a free screening.

The idea behind the series is to bring new, interesting ideas about movies, film and electronic media to Auburn, said Terry Cuddy, curator for Making Movies.
