2019
I'm a senior at Framingham State University, majoring in Communication Arts with a concentration in Integrated Visual Media. Before attending FSU, I earned my Associates Degree from Middlesex Community College. Through my school studies, I've learned a lot about making films; I even wrote, produced, and edited a short film that was screened at Boson's 2019 Independent Film Festival Student Showcase. I'm excited to expand my knowledge of media production by learning the ins and outs of TV broadcasting during my internship with ACMi. After graduation, I plan to work in the TV industry and hopefully make my way into the film industry.

Hey everyone, I'm Lawrence Xu! I'm from Beijing, China and currently study in Tufts University. I absolutely love watching movies, playing games, and fictional writing. If I had to choose a favorite film, it would be Spirited Away. Though, La La Land is not far from it. I've come to ACMi to learn everything I can about production and filmmaking. And so far, the experience has already exceeded beyond my expectations!

Sebastean González-Johnson
Sebastean Gonzalez-Johnson is a senior at Tufts University studying Film & Media and Entrepreneurship. Although Sebastean enjoys camera work and post-production, being an on-screen personality aligns more with his ambitions. Using the skills he's acquired at ACMi as a complement to his business background, Sebastean's ultimate goal is to develop his own media agency that would allow him to create marketing and advertising campaigns for clients while having the ability to produce content.
