Testimonials
"Your visit and interaction with our students and faculty were dynamic, exciting and sent everyone into a tail spin about the camera. When we met in L.A. and I introduced the thought of arranging a time to share your expertise with our students I stressed the important of the example of alumni giving back by sharing their professional resources. You were brilliant in many ways and most importantly, as they say in Jewish, "a mensch". We all look forward to another Hurlbut visit and certainly hope you will join us at the film festival, March 11th."

Shane Hurlbut, ASC gave the keynote speech, "Catch The Wave: How The Canon 5D Mark II Is A Game Changer For Student Films"
"Shane provided a stimulating, interactive discussion about the Canon 5D Mark II camera and how it changes the way student films are being made. Hurlbut refers to this camera as a "game changer" because of its versatility. Important features include: compact nature of the camera itself, lighter still lenses, image stabilizing ability, and flexibility to accent the action in new ways with increased depth and sharpness. Finally, there is an affordable camera for a student filmmaker with ability to deliver images that rival 35 mm film. Shooting with the Canon 5D Mark II prepares students to dive into the professional world of making movies with experience."
