Davies and Post Win "Best Drama" Award

From Left to Right, Trevor Davies, Jeffrey Post, and their cast winning an award.

School of Media Arts students Trevor Davies and Jeffrey Post have won the “Best Drama” Award for their film “The Infinite” at a festival competition held at the Gallagher Theater. “The Infinite” was written and directed by Davies and produced and shot by Post.

Their short has its focus on a boy who believes himself to be immortal. “The lead actors were kids from the neighborhood and they did a terrific job,” said Davies.

The original concept was based in a forest landscape, however the filmmakers opted to make use of the desert. The two-day shoot took place in an Oro Valley desert clearing. “We had a great crew and that made all the difference,” said Davies.

The film was created for the nationwide Campus MovieFest, which was held recently in San Francisco, California.

Davies, a School of Media Arts sophomore, is already an accomplished filmmaker, having completed nine films. He is currently developing a short having its focus on a horrible betrayal inspiring the expression of anger and wrath.

Congratulations to Davies and Post on the success of their award winning film, “The Infinite.”
