What does pursuing a degree related to film and television look like? What can you actually study? SCAD students Grace Lawell, Jack Savage, and June Hauser share their experiences working toward degrees related to film and TV at the school and how Atlanta factors into their careers. Grace graduated in 2022 with a B.F.A in performing arts, June Hauser is a senior pursuing a B.F.A in film and television and a minor in casting - and is the student manager of the Atlanta Casting Office at SCAD - and Jack Savage is a first-year student working toward his B.F.A in acting.
Sammie Purcell, associate editor of Rough Draft Atlanta, also joins the show to talk about the closing weekend of the Atlanta Film Festival and the city’s bid to host the Sundance Film Festival.
