More in About:
The School of Theater, Film and Media Arts has an active community of students, faculty and alumni, whose talents
FMA Alum Kandis Hutchenson went from learning about and appreciating the world of animation to working with Dreamworks in just a few years.
"I remember our MFA colloquium class where we had to introduce ourselves, and I had just discovered the animated series Avatar: the Last Airbender and spoke about it." Says Kandis, Now, 10 years later she works under Margie Cohn, CEO of Dreamworks, who was the executive that greenlit the series. When she had a one on one coffee with her, it felt "like a dream come true."
Temple FMA students create amazing films and we were so upset not to be able to celebrate them this past Spring in our annual Diamond Screen Film Festival or our BFA Master Class Showcase. Because of Covid-19 and the fact that our semester was truncated, many of the films that we would have enjoyed at the end of the semester could not be finished.
This year at our REEL GIRLS event we were honored to welcome Alum and multiple Emmy-winner Rachel Sophia Stewart ('13) -- we sat down with her recently. Rachel is a Senior Editor at History Making Productions and her work generally entails editing their main series and features.
Recently we had thegreat pleasure of connecting with FMA alum Lyle Drescher (FMA '19) where we were able to talk about how he worked toward the long time dream he had of working at Adult Swim.
