We're looking forward to two great sessions next week at the GSCA 2023 Film Expo.

The USC Film Student Showcase was one of the highlights of the 2022 Film Expo. Due to its popularity, we’re including it again this year and hope to make it a fixture at upcoming Film Expos. Organized by USC Giant Screen Filmmaking Professor Matt Scott, the session provides eager film students the priceless opportunity to present their projects to giant screen industry veterans. In turn, Film Expo attendees can scout new talent and support the next generation of giant screen filmmakers. You’ll leave the session cheering for the students, inspired by their talent, and excited about the future of the industry.
