G-Star School Named #1 Film High School in the World says Greg Hauptner, Founder
The G-Star School of the Arts for Motion Pictures and Broadcasting, Palm Springs, Florida has been named the Number One High School for Film in the World by the Raindance Film Festival in London, UK. The Award took place at the Apollo Theater in Piccadilly Circus in London’s prestigious West End theater district. The Raindance Film Festival is the largest independent film festival in Europe; it also owns the British Independent Film Awards and Raindance TV. While handing the Award to Greg Hauptner, the school’s Founder, at the Awards Ceremony, Raindance Founder Elliot Grove stated, “We are truly excited to give this honor as the Number One High School for Film in the World to the G-Star School of the Arts. Your representation here this year at Raindance with the highest quality film shorts and your school’s feature-length film is the testament proving that your school is indeed worthy of this honor.”
This is the first high school ever so designated by one of the leading film festivals in the world. Beau Rogers, Executive Producer of the Academy Award winning film Gods and Monsters, plus 41other feature films, made the nomination to the Raindance Film Festival on behalf of the G-Star School of the Arts. “I’ve known Greg’s school has been worthy of this award for years. I am proud to introduce the world to G-Star,” says Rogers.
“Exciting isn’t the word,” says Hauptner. “With nine shorts, one music video, one short feature and one full-length feature film appearing in the Festival, hundreds of our students can now say their work premiered at one of the largest and most famous film festivals in the world – with accolades.”
