Inaugural Blog

This is the first blog for the Oakcrest Film Institute. Please be aware that I am new to this, so please reserve all mockery for more private moments.

Welcome...FI family...past and present!

First, Widdy and I conceptualized a place where all members of our little community can come, share ideas, film critiques, works in progress, updates, philosophies, arguments, etc.

One of the most important aspects of this institute has always been sustainability. In other words, our dream was to keep institute graduates connected through college and beyond. A viable alumni base will add tremendous value to our community as it provides a film marketplace. On a casual level (not too casual, please, keep in mind this is a HIGH SCHOOL blog), we could share ideas, film interests, movie recommendations. More importantly, though, we can share news and projects we are working on. Movie opportunities and needs from the different campuses our alumni base represents, as well as news from the hottest film school on Cologne Avenue in beautiful, downtown Mays Landing!

For this year's students, one other important part of this will be to draw your attention to the handy-dandy links list attached to this site. You will find this list will contain several resources to insure your domination of "The Game." This will also be a great way for us to stay updated on the changes to "The Game."

So...more soon. Until then, enjoy!
