Congratulations Kingson!

Film Prize Junior would like to congratulate Kingson Willis on his official selection to the All-American High School Film Festival. We are SO excited to see one of our own competing with the best around.

Here are a few questions we asked!

How does it feel to be selected by the festival?

Kingson: When I found out that my PSA was going to be shown at the AAHSFF in NYC, I honestly was much less excited than I expected myself to be. It was an interesting moment because I've dreamed of winning the All American HS Film Festival since I created my very first film for Film Prize Jr.

I think that all the time and hard work I spent creating my PSA helped me understand that film, for me, really isn’t about the recognition but rather its the joy I feel in the creation of something that used to only sit in my mind.

How did Film Prize might prepare you for this experience?

Kingson: Throughout this summer, the people at Film Prize, especially my mentor, Mr. Thom Johnson, have been amazing at carefully guiding me through the creation of my PSA . They have walked me through the entire production process and have always given me advice when I needed it.

Needless to say, we're pretty proud! Want to learn more about Film Prize Junior and how you too can get your work in front of an audience? Check out filmprizejr.com and be SURE to email Steven Knight at [email protected] to get your middle or high school students registered.

Awesome opportunities with one of our local partners!
