      A fifth-grade class from Pasadena Unified’s McKinley School will premiere three original student films at the Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival’s Youth Cinema Project Student Film Festival on Sunday, May 31, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

      By News Desk

      Since last year, students have been writing, editing, and producing their own films as part of a hands-on creative program focused on storytelling and filmmaking. The program provides students with the opportunity to develop their creative voices while learning the fundamentals of film production.

      The three student films scheduled for debut are:

      • The Little Scaredy Cat, written by Jonathan Escobar
      • Aniebell the Procrastinator, written by Ursula Aryal
      • The Day My Cat Got Trapped In a Tunnel, written by Nova Aby

      Festival attendees will have the opportunity to support the student filmmakers, watch the short films, participate in live question-and-answer sessions, and attend workshops led by industry professionals.

      The event celebrates the creativity and accomplishments of young filmmakers as they share their stories on the big screen.
