i c a m p u 9 Movie j—es“t Bright lights, little city Campus Movie Fest is the worlds largest student film festival and is the go-to outlet for the next generation of filmmakers. Students from about 50 universities around the country are provided with the equipment to make a movie-including video camerasandeditingsoftware. The winning filmmakers from each school get the chance to gain international recognition. Four teams of filmmakers at Oregon State did well enough to be invited to Campus Movie Fest’s International Grand Finale in Hollywood, where they took part in industry workshops and panels, saw advanced screenings of feature films, had their creations played among the best student films in the country, and attended a red carpet awards ceremony at Warner Bros. Studios. Story by Erika Altenhofen Many of the participants in the Oregon State CMF were New Media Communications majors and had experience working KBVR TV’s cameras. Some of the students took their filmmaking a step farther by going 3D. The makers of Best Drama winner “Menage,” Josh Peschka and John Schulze, were asked to create a 3D film to be displayed and competed against at the Hollywood event. “It’s a zombie horror movie and basically it’s a guy who gets caught up in the middle of a Zombie apocalypse and he goes to save his dad and his girlfriend,” Schulze said. “Its basically his journey on the way.

 )( 4ekend Big Daddy Beavers Stc Story by Jessica Maynard Men in Black and Orange was the theme for Dads weekend. Comedian Michael Ian Black, whose name provided inspiration for the weekend’s theme, performed for two sold out crowds Friday night. Fathers and sons (or daughters) kept theselves busy throughout the weekend with self-guided library tours, pottery sales, and a golf tournament hosted by Dixon Recreational Center. Guests even got a chance to meet Craig Robinson during a book signing aimed to promote the basketball coach’s recent book. Saturday’s activities included breakfast in the Memorial Union, a home beerbrewing demonstration, and an open house held by the flying club at the Corvallis Airport. Of course the main event for many dads is the annual Dad’s Weekend football game, and this year the Beavers took on Washington State. Before the big game on Saturday, many students and their fathers took part in tailgating around campus. Unfortunately, dads didn’t get to witness a win. Instead, they bore witness to the end of the Cougars 16-game conference losing streak. Hopefully dads weren’t discouraged and will return for years to come! Thanks, Dads, for your support and love.
