For students in the College of the North Atlantic’s Digital Filmmaking Program, the show must go on.

For the ninth annual Digital Filmmaking program’s intersession short film project, the students are doing things a little differently.

Organizers are issuing a virtual casting call for this year’s film – the story of an astronaut, light-years away from Earth, as he deals with the harsh realities of long-term isolation.
