Welcome to the Equinox Film Festival
We, as high school students, aim to encourage and support students to explore the art of filmmaking, while giving them access to a local audience.
About
The Equinox Film Festival is an annual film contest hosted by the Digital Media Club at Montgomery Bell Academy and is open to any high school student in Nashville. The festival was first created in 2023 by Eric Zhong (MBA '24) and Hunter Sava ('27) to encourage students to learn about and explore filmmaking. Both wanted to give students the opportunity to try something new and find a passion in the work that goes into creating a film. Students create their own films, which are reviewed by three judges and awarded prize money if they finish in the top three. In the spring, all films are shown at the MBA ENDADA Music & Arts Festival.
