  • First Look Program 2021
    WELCOME to FIRST LOOK 2021 Welcome to the First Look Festival of 2021! One of my great pleasures as Dean of the School of Cinematic Arts is being able to introduce our festival films each year, and congratulate all the deserving students who contributed to them. This year I am especially proud of the determination and dedication inherent in these projects, as they were completed within the limitations of Covid 19 protocols. Despite this, the work you will see here is of the highest quality, and many will go on to tour the film festival circuit and win awards in the year ahead. They will also serve as calling cards for the talented young professionals who are graduating from the School and launching careers as filmmakers. Our students always depend on their family and friends to help them through their programs. Filmmaking is a challenging endeavor, and it takes a village of encouragement to have the confidence needed to bring a project to fruition. This year our students truly needed support, as our campus was shut down and many of them had to return home. Despite not being able to meet in person, the filmmakers found ways to collaborate. And as their films will attest, did so brilliantly! So please enjoy this year’s festival. And congratulations to all the students whose names appear in the end credits of these films. Elizabeth M. Daley Steven J. Ross/Time Warner Professor and Dean USC School of Cinematic Arts I firmly believe that film has been the major art form of the 20th century, and will continue to have a powerful influence on our culture and society.
