Manchester High and Clover Hill High won awards at the Virginia High School League Film Festival on June 1. High schools throughout Virginia submitted films, and only 48 films were chosen for the Film Festival: Nine of those were created by Manchester High students, and four were created by Clover Hill High students. That means almost 20% of accepted films were created in Chesterfield County Public Schools!
Manchester High had the highest number of accepted films and won the most awards:
“Have a Blast With Pressure Works” won first place in the commercial category and also won the audience choice award in that category.
“More Than Just You” won first place in the public service announcement category.
“Last Time for Everything” won the audience choice award in the narrative category.
The Clover Hill High film “Evasion” won the audience choice award in the experimental category.
