Lights, Camera, Action, Aggies - IMAX Film Producer Speaks at USU Feb. 4

The Journalism and Communication Department at Utah State University sponsors a Media and  Society lecture featuring T.C. Christensen, award-winning cinematographer, director and producer.

Christensen speaks at noon Wednesday, Feb. 4, in the Eccles Conference Center on the campus of Utah State University. All are invited to attend the event that provides insights into film-making offered by the cinematographer of several feature films and IMax productions, including The ButterCream Gang, Rigoletto, Take the Lead, The Testaments and recently, Gordon B. Hinckley: A Giant Among Men.

 

“T.C. Christensen is a talented film-maker and our department is thrilled to host him as he speaks for the Media & Society Lecture,” said Michael Sweeney, JCOM department head. “He will speak with students and faculty after the lecture.”

 

Past Media & Society Lecture speakers have focused on TV and kids, the political process, innovations in PR to lead audiences, community activism, press and the presidency and the dangers facing foreign correspondents.

 

“We should all take advantage of the opportunity to listen to the words of wisdom T.C. Christensen has to share with us,” said professor Preston Parker. “It’s quite an honor to have him speak at Utah State University. Anyone interested in the film-making process or even the movie-watching process will likely enjoy this lecture.”

 

Christensen has won several awards in the last 15 years, including the Best Feature Comedy twice, Best Feature Film and the CINE Golden Eagle Award.
