More than a dozen 满帆 graduates worked on Steven Spielberg’s highly anticipated new film Ready Player One. Taking on roles from VFX assistant to NASA clearance coordinator, these 16 graduates from our 电影, Computer Animation, and 录音艺术 programs contributed their talents to help transform this popular book from paper to the big screen.

To celebrate the release of the film, an exclusive screening was held at Regal Winter Park Village Stadium for 满帆 students, 教师, 和工作人员. To add to the excitement, guests enjoyed a VR experience before and after the screening and had a chance to win giveaways from the film.
