Scheduled Speakers, Travel and Tourism, Maps 50-61 WELCOME TO UFVA 2013: STORY FIRST

Dear colleague,

We are delighted to welcome you to the 2013 UFVA conference—as always, an opportunity to catch up with colleagues and to meet new ones, both stimulating and enjoyable on so many levels. As film education is still relatively new to the academy, it is helpful to talk with others facing the same challenges of teaching and of bringing together the many diverse disciplines that go into making media in all of its forms.

Although we discuss storytelling at every UFVA conference, this year we chose to highlight the importance of story as the necessary antecedent for everything else that we do. Without a continual focus on the primacy of story in every discipline— from cinematography to marketing—we are less likely to reach our full potential as filmmakers and media storytellers.

We are delighted to have Peter Debruge, features editor and senior film critic for Variety, to kick off our conference with an examination of the challenges of “Inventing Stories in the Reality Era.” Peter is an astute and articulate observer of the entertainment industry and I am confident his thinking will provide a platform to launch what I expect will be a thought-provoking conference on many levels.

We also hope you have time to enjoy the many attractions that Southern California has to offer.

Dean Robert Bassett Twyla Reed Martin’s Dean Chair in Film and Media Arts Chapman University’s Dodge College of Film and Media Arts
