猫咪社区app University School of Communication (AU SOC) Film and Media Arts Division hosted the annual Visions Awards Ceremony on May 5. Celebrating 41 years, SOC鈥檚 Vision Awards honor outstanding visual student work from both graduate and undergraduate students, highlighting the best in documentary, fiction, digital and new media, screenwriting and photography. Award winners are listed below, or you can .

Assistant Professor Kyle(Kylos) Brannon welcomed the audience to the virtual ceremony. The event included a video tribute to Professor John Douglass, longtime director of the Film and Media Arts division, who is retiring from AU this year.

Brannon commented "I was impressed with the work that our students submitted, during this year of COVID and Zooming. The judges were impressed, and I can't stress how proud we all are of the work. Also, I would have been happy with a crowd of 25, so I was thrilled to have 100+ people join in for the ceremony!"

Professor Bill Gentile also recognized several students for special achievements outside of the Visions awards, including:

• Amelia Tyson and Jessica Marcy for winning this year's AU-Pulitzer Center International Reporting Fellowship for their proposal to produce a film in Guatemala about the role of religion in forced migration caused by climate change.
• Robert Boyd for receiving the very competitive National Geographic Storytelling Fulbright. A recent graduate, Boyd will receive storytelling training with the National Geographic Society and will be paired with a mentor drawn from the Explorer community and National Geographic staff.
• Mary Alice McMillan for receiving the Neel Foundation Fund award, which is supplying her with $3000 in finishing funds for her thesis film, Mapping Love, which also won the Visions award for graduate thesis.
