On March 15, the team joined another group of 22 Montclair State filmmaking majors who had been spending their spring break planting a footprint for the School in Los Angeles with an exciting round of top agency, network and studio visits.<\/p>\n
The group first met with University filmmaking alumni who shared their stories about working and living in Hollywood. They later gained insights on how to land a Hollywood job from University of Southern California Professor Krista Parkinson. A trip to Hollywood would be incomplete without a movie screening \u2013 the group enjoyed their screening of just-released film\u00a0Gloria Bell<\/em>.<\/p>\n
During the week, the students met with 20 screenwriters, pages, executives and coordinators at NBC Universal, where they were encouraged to trust their voices. They toured\u00a0E! News<\/em>\u00a0and Steve Harvey\u2019s\u00a0Steve<\/em>\u00a0show studios and Warner Brothers Entertainment sound stages for\u00a0Animal Kingdom.\u00a0<\/em>They visited HBO and Hulu studios and the Chinese Theatre.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
They learned the tricks of the trade from Creative Artists Agency agents Jonas Brooks and Jacob Schiff. Montclair State alumnus and\u00a0The Simpsons<\/em>\u00a0Emmy award-winning writer and producer Mike Price walked the students through a recording session for the Netflix series\u00a0F is For Family<\/em>, which he co-writes and co-produces.<\/p>\n
They met at the Writers Guild of America West for a discussion with award-winning\u00a0Ingrid Goes West\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Adrift\u00a0<\/em>screenwriter David Branson Smith. They also enjoyed a discussion with former Viacom Music Entertainment Group president and current Quibi executive Doug Herzog on the future of entertainment media.<\/p>\n
After their arrival, the student Emmy\u00ae nominees enjoyed two days of executive networking with top media executives and fellow nominees before the awards ceremony, building relationships with current and future media leaders.<\/p>\n
Their awards recognize the students\u2019 talent and point the way to future professional success. The College Television Awards not only showcase outstanding student productions, but also can serve as an entry point for television and media careers. Past winners have worked in various positions on such hit shows as\u00a0Mad Men<\/em>,\u00a060 Minutes<\/em>,\u00a0Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em>\u00a0and more.<\/p>\n
\u201cMontclair State has a long tradition of preparing graduates for the communication and media industries,\u201d says College of the Arts Dean Daniel Gurskis. \u201cThese Emmy Award-winning students are already making their mark as the next generation of professionals in their field.\u201d<\/p>\n
