March 2011: SCDS Alum Receives Filmmaking Honor

Ben Kadie, an SCDS alum from the class of 2009, has been making movies since third grade and has a knack for incorporating green screen and other special effects into his films. Seattle-based youth film festival NFFTY has featured Ben's uber-creative films in every one of their festivals the past four years.

Ben's most recent accomplishment, receiving a Scholastic Art & Writing Award from the Alliance for Young Artists and Writers, can be viewed at Seattle Art Museum. There, his three-minute film noir, "Sparks in the Night" is being shown with the traveling exhibit ART.WRITE.NOW, which showcases select winners of the national writing award. The event is free and open to the public at SAM until April 24, 2011 during regular museum hours.

Be sure to catch Ben's latest film and other youth made movies at this year's NFFTY from April 28 - May 1, 2011. You may stumble upon the next Spielberg, Kubrick, Lynch or Shelton!
