Filmmaking process is amazing and exciting like magic, and everything needs to be created from nothing like a dove suddenly appears on illusionist’s hand. However behind this glaring magic, so many people work deliberately and so many wonderful stories are going on, which are even more dramatic than our film itself. So I even have more enthusiasm to share our story than the story in the film. I want to consider this paper like an interesting manual for the people who interest and research Terra Cotta Warrior than an obscure technical treatise. There are so many people involved this “story” including the members of my committee, schoolmates and friends.

  • 9629 Filmfest Program.Indd
    FILM IN SYRACUSE 1 FILM IN SYRACUSE Special Letter From The Artistic Director, Owen Shapiro PEACE AND SOCIAL JUSTICE is the focus of this year’s Syracuse International Film Festival. In 2009 Le Moyne College initiated a festival showcase of films dealing with the theme of Peace and Social Justice, and since that time has sponsored and hosted this showcase. In 2012 this theme takes on even greater significance in light of the death of Bassel Shahade, a Graduate student in Syracuse University’s College of Visual and Performing Arts’ Film Program. Bassel was killed while training citizen journalists in his home country of Syria to document with video what was happening there. Bassel’s love for his people and desire to help them fight for political, social, and economic freedom led to his decision to take a leave from his studies in Syracuse. Bassel’s honesty, personal integrity, and love for peace and opportunity were acutely felt by all who knew him. He was a model fighter for peace and social justice. Peace and Social Justice when seen in terms of the individual’s right to equal opportunity and respect regardless of economic class, race, gender, sexual orientation, nationality or religion also must include a person’s physical and/or mental abilities or disabilities. In this sense, peace and social justice includes another long-standing feature of our festival - Imaging Disability in Film, a program created by the School of Education at Syracuse University. Peace and Social Justice is about equality, fairness, and equal opportunity, basic values of all major religions and of all democratic societies.

This film tells a story of a female protagonist, Felicia. She enjoys a poor yet happy life with her fiancé, Ryan, a young striving filmmaker who needs funding to continue with graduate school. After selling his car in order to cover school expenses, Ryan moves into Felicia’s house. One day, Felicia accidentally opens an envelope that was addressed to her ex-husband, Ed. The letter reveals that Ed is entitled to inherit a huge fortune from a recently deceased uncle, a distant relative residing in Europe.

    Graduate Education at RIT The graduate learning experience at RIT is focused. RIT graduate programs focus on the conceptual structure and organiza- tion of knowledge in the chosen subject— an understanding that is essential to both accept and lead technological change in the professions. They also build an educational base for additional learning and offer access to, and mobility within, one or more professional areas. Katherine The programs themselves are centered Mayberry, in fields that combine both theoretical Associate Provost for knowledge and practical applications, Academic Programs especially those with a proven need in the marketplace. Thesis topics often relate directly to situational concerns, rather than theoretical discourse. Programs that do not require a thesis or project encourage other avenues for professional experience, such as optional or required cooperative education or an internship. Students often use employers as primary sources for research and special projects. This application approach attracts faculty who value problem-solving skills in students. Whether a thesis, project or professional portfolio is required, our students are encouraged to incorporate both independent study and experiential learning into their programs.
