Envision Cinema Conservatory students just completed a documentary project that focused on social justice topics in a partnership with the San Diego Film Festival and the San Diego Film Foundation's Focus on Impact program. The students' films were approved and critiqued by film festival representatives and Thomas Morgan, the producer of the documentary Storied Streets. Conservatory members have just begun a new narrative film project, and seniors are working on the first ever Cinema Conservatory senior showcase featuring four independent senior films coming in May. All of the 2017-2018 Cinema Conservatory films will be showcased in the CCA Film Festival on Friday, May 18th at 7pm in the Proscenium Theatre.

We are delighted to welcome Emmy-award-winning television screenwriter and producer Javier Grillo-Marxuach. Though best known as one of the Emmy Award winning writer/producers of the hit ABC series LOST, and for creating The Middleman graphic novels and television series, Javier Grillo-Marxuach is a prolific creator of TV, film, comics, and trans-media content currently working as co-executive producer of The Dark Crystal, a ten-hour Netflix series revival of the classic Jim Henson feature film, and as consulting producer of Blood and Treasure, a thirteen-part summer series for CBS. Both will air in 2019. Grillo-Marxuach's career in television spans over twenty years, with credits including popular hits like Medium, Charmed, and The Pretender, critically acclaimed series including Boomtown, and The 100, and cult shows like The Pretender, The Chronicle, Jake 2.0, The Shannara Chronicles, Helix, and seaQuest.

Javier will describe the path he followed in establishing a successful, productive, and influential career that has garnered top industry accolades including an Emmy and Writer’s Guild Award.
