Winning films commemorate CU 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó at 150

Student filmmakers participating in the 150 Years of CU 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó film competition had five minutes or fewer to tell a story from the university's expansive history


This year marks the 150th anniversary of the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó--a milestone that is inspiring both reflections on those first 150 years and visions of what the next 150 might bring.

To commemorate and celebrate CU 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó's first 150 years, the Department of Cinema Studies and Moving Image Arts issued a challenge to students: Create a film that's three to five minutes long, incorporates archival material from University Colorado Publicity Collections and/or photographs from the CU Campus Building Collections and tells a story from CU 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó's first 150 years.

The winning films by Doug Conway and Benjamin Albuisson incorporate both historical photos and videos, telling stories of a spot in 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó, Colorado, where communities grew, where ideas flourished and where innovation with potential to change the world happened.
