LOCAL WORKS
Co-Presented by FRONTERA FILMMAKERS
Starting sixteen years ago as the student exhibition "Cine Estudiantil: The Chicano & Native American Student Film Festival,” the festival began its history with local filmmakers. From this early festival grew the need for and the realization of that need to create a new non-profit entity. Established in 1999, MEDIA ARTS CENTER SAN DIEGO now nurtures and supports media artists working in film, video, audio, and computer-based multimedia. The organization was founded to challenge the historical exclusion of under-represented communities from the media field, and distorted images of these communities by mainstream media. MEDIA ARTS CENTER SAN DIEGO seeks to provide a forum for and promote the diversity of interests of San Diego Border Region media artists through regular screenings, educational outreach, digital story stations, film distribution, film festivals, production and technical assistance, scholarships and fiscal sponsorships.
