Five-Minute Film Festival Entries

This year, SCOE hosted its third annual Five-Minute Film Festival. This was an opportunity for K-12 students to demonstrate learning in a 21st century context and showcase their work in front of a community audience. To participate, students created short videos (up to five-minutes long) on the theme of “Discovery” and submitted them to a SCOE for judging by a celebrity panel. The top 15 films debuted at the Festival on April 3.

All 15 films screened at the April viewing are shown below, with the winning films highlighted first. You can use the Search box, above right, to search for a specific film.
