2014 Award Winners!

This year's Audience Award winner is "To Judge a Thief" directed by Luke Lowder. Luke and his team did an excellent job of getting the word out to their fans who delivered a decisive victory in the online poll. Excellent work, guys!





This year's Grand Prize winner is Paul Lopez for his film "Into Nether." This was Paul's second year submitting a film to the UAT DV Festival, and his dedication to learning the craft of digital filmmaking is apparent. Paul's efforts have won him the Grand Prize - a full-tuition scholarship to study Digital Video at University of Advancing Technology in Tempe, AZ. We look forward to welcoming him to the DV family!


Congratulations to both Luke and Paul, and to all our selected filmmakers this year!
