The CPC Film Series recently welcomed alumni filmmakers Dylan Bowman and Nik Hogan back to campus for a special showcase of their work at the Capital Blue Cross Theatre.

The evening featured two films from Bowman, including his award-selected short Plaster Heart, along with Hogan’s Nik & Trevor: The First Day — the first animated film ever screened as part of the CPC Film Series.

From live-action filmmaking to animation, these talented alumni demonstrated the power of storytelling and showed our students what’s possible when creativity, passion and persistence come together.
