General Information for 2023

EYE Light Film Festival

Welcome to the 22nd Annual EYE Light Student Film Festival. 

EYE Light was started at Buckingham Charter Magnet High School, in 2001, teaching student about the film industry using 35mm film cameras. The most notable films produced at BCMHS are Sanctuary and Ashes.

Since then the festival has had its ups and downs. It went from an International festival, to school site, to district, to regional, then virtual, and back to a school festival. 

This year it is again open to local districts and community.
