BUFFALO — Movie lovers can have their own night on the red carpet during Buffalo State’s TFA Night at the Oscars, Sunday from 8:00 p.m. to midnight in the Campbell Student Union Social Hall.
Television and Film Arts (TFA) Director Jeffery Hirschberg’s film and criticism classes organized the 10th annual event, which includes a viewing of the 89th Academy Awards on a big screen. TFA students will conduct interviews and take photos of guests wearing semi-formal/formal attire. The Marquee Band will provide entertainment and refreshments will be served.
“TFA Night at the Oscars is a big celebration of the year’s best films,” said sophomore Noelle Fisher, co-chair for the event. “Television and film is something everyone can relate to.”
Although there isn’t a theme for this year’s event, students plan to decorate the Social Hall in gold reflecting the Oscar statuette, Fisher said.
The evening also provides a time for aspiring filmmakers to shine. Several TFA students submitted short films in hopes of receiving a TFA Pioneer award. Award nominees will be announced live via the TFA Facebook page at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are $10. Students with ID are admitted for free. All proceeds will benefit the TFA program.
