“It feels good knowing that I was capable of creating work strong enough to win. I really appreciate the people that put this event together. It was great and everyone should attend next year. The films shown were very entertaining and it was nice connecting with other filmmakers around the Central Coast,” said junior Asher Dedek.
“It feels surreal and very validating. I’m very happy about winning this award. I didn’t expect to win. I feel like my future is bright and I am very motivated now. It makes me want to push as far as I can with film and music and see where it takes me. I felt very accepted at the event and that I was part of something bigger than myself and contributing to something positive,” said senior Julie Jackson.

I think it’s amazing that the Central Coast Film Society has created this competition for students to earn scholarships towards their future as filmmakers. Getting selected is a big honor and I’m really happy for my students,” said Gustafson.
