Chabot College FILM Department
GladFest
2009 Program
Tuesday, November 17, 2009
Welcome
Welcome and thank you for joining us at the first Chabot College
Gladiator Student Film Festival.
Since the inception of our Film Department in 2008, our
students have been creating wonderful films that inspire, inform,
and entertain.
It is a joy to help these students discover and hone their
creative talents, and now a pleasure to present this body of work
that represents a great beginning to our growing program.
We hope you will enjoy the show!
