High School Filmmakers. [base "]Here in Chicago,[per thou] reports David Bernstein in the New York Times, [base "]Carlo Trovato, an English teacher and film instructor at Von Steuben High School on the city[base ']s North Side, said that interest in filmmaking swelled after the school added digital media production to its curriculum about four years ago. Last year, with much-needed grant money, the school purchased five Apple eMac desktop computers and Final Cut Pro editing software for its media lab [sigma] Student demand for the course has surprised even Mr. Trovato; he said 200 students now typically sign up for 30 spots per class. Two years ago the school added a second film class. And a film festival, now in its fourth year, attracts more entries each year.[per thou] [Aug 15] [Apple Hot News]
