The Digital Media CT Kickoff is a one-day digital media forum this Friday, June 22, with short presentations and panel discussions featuring representatives from nearby film and television students, and digital media agencies.
The event kicks off Digital Media Connecticut (DMCT), a partnership between the Digital Media & Design Department at UConn Stamford and the Connecticut Office for Film, Television, and Digital Media.
