Mission Valley ROP is a provider of career training for high tech, high pay and high demand fields! Keeping current with today’s standards, Mission Valley ROP is able to provide our high school students with professional video, graphic, and photography equipment, but so far our only output has been the internet.
Students should have the opportunity to experience their art with a live audience. Multimedia Fest 2008 will provide that outlet for Bay Area high school students, and allow our community to both experience and support their work. With the success of this event, future festivals will expand to eventually include a state-wide exhibition. At Mission Valley ROP, we believe in one common objective-helping our students develop to their full potential!
The Mission Valley ROP Multimedia Festival will be held on May 17, 2008 at Valhalla Theatre (Irvington High School): 41800 Blacow Road, Fremont, CA 94538.
If you are interested in attending Multimedia Fest 2008, tickets are $5 (advance purchase) and $7 at the door. Seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Select sponsor/donation levels offer reserved seating and complimentary tickets.
What are the perks to attending? Aside from viewing the works of MVROP's talented students, Multimedia Fest 2008 features an audience choice award. Members of the audience will be given ballots to vote for their favorite video, and awards will be announced at the end of the evening.
