Christian Film Academy Students Get High-Tech Opportunity to Interact Live With Faculty

By Geoffrey Botkin — September 27, 2006

Vision Forum is pleased to announce that Christian-owned and operated Extreme Meetings has joined as a sponsor for this year’s Christian Filmmakers Academy and will be making its advanced technology available to every student, giving them the power to interact live with instructors during many of the complex lectures designed to sharpen their filmmaking skills.

Wireless keypads in the hands of every student will give them yet additional advantages students in other film courses do not enjoy. “We try to only cover the material the students need,” says instructor Geoffrey Botkin. “This phenomenal tool helps us fine-tune our lectures as we go. The Academy has a very fast-paced schedule, and it’s packed with customized material. This outstanding tool also allows the students to learn more about the skills and background of their peers, and to become more aware of the unique demographics of the independent Christian film movement.”
