Productions

From paying tributes to master artists to highlighting pressing social issues, we produce films that provide a deeper introspection of a wide range of sociocultural topics. We work with professional filmmakers, some of whom are Cinema faculty. Our students benefit from working as interns on these films. In September 2010, our first film, Cachao: Uno Más, premiered on the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Emmy® Award-winning series, American Masters
