The Highbridge Film Festival began in 2005 as a vehicle for Asbury University’s School of Communication Arts to showcase student films and in the process, encourage visual storytelling. Each year the festival selects about a dozen student films and provides a venue for special presentations from Communication Arts and the panel of judges from the film and television industry. The film festival is entirely produced and promoted through the combined efforts of the School of Communication Arts’ Special Events class, student volunteers, and underwritten by sponsors. Highbridge Film Festival has grown into a nationally recognized collegiate film festival delighting audiences and attracting wide-ranging interest from the film industry.
