Cannes was absolutely incredible. While merely attending the festival is a feat and honor in itself, being able to be part of the process of running the American Pavilion's portion of it was a double blessing. Through my IIACI Cannes experience, I was able to network with such entities as Louisiana Ent. and Film Jefferson, Fransisco Productions, Creative Coalition, and Sag Indie, and I made a number of acquaintances, friends, and music related connections. I also had the pleasure of meeting such individuals as producer Lynette Howell and Director Stephen Frears and attending panel discussions involving the likes of Ryan Gosling, Michelle Williams, Doug Lyman, James Franco, and Ellen Barkin. It was really an experience that I will treasure for the rest of my life, and I am so thankful to you, Dr. Dill for advising and allowing me to attend this!!!

The Cannes experience most definitely opened up an entire level of the filming industry I had never realized was so in-depth and extensive. Working under Dr. Dill allowed me to not only appreciate the aesthetic and technical side of film, but also find relevance within the business element. The IIACI internship guided me through the Cannes Film Festival breaking down the mechanics of how movies are critiqued and sold. It also opened my eyes to the sheer amount of movies being made on a perpetual basis many mainstream audiences are not able to enjoy. Along with this, the mandatory work involved with and after the festival helped me to put my entire trip into perspective. It is an experience I will never forget.

My experience in Cannes was unforgettable! The chance to see so many films informed my perspective on American vs. international cinema -- something that would not have been possible without attending the festival. I also had an amazing opportunity to photograph panels, events, and press conferences held at the American Pavilion, and came away with an amazing portfolio of work that includes photos of Matt Lauer, James Franco, Michelle Williams, and Ryan Gosling! Being able to reflect on all of this in my academic paper for IIACI really enhanced the whole experience. Thanks for the incredible opportunity!

Never before had I thought of the concept of exercising my creativity to make it stronger. I had always assumed that what creativity I had inside of me was it and there was no way to expand that. I thought this until I took Dr. Dill's seminar on creativity my senior year of college and was quickly set straight by her that my potential as a creative being was limitless! Her teaching and gentle pushing to go deeper inside ourselves was what lead me to pick up a paint brush for the first time, an outlet I have turned to again and again since. Her determination and drive as not only an artist but as a teacher has also helped in my recent decision to further my education. Thank you Dr. Dill for being an inspiration to me and countless others! Your class was a blast!
