A CONVERGENCE OF FILM & MUSIC
On Wednesday March 3 at 6pm (6pm drinks for a 7pm screening), Sydney Film School (SFS) screens 10 short films at the Australian Institute of Music (AIM) as part of a very special AIM/SFS screening night.
All the films screened have been made by SFS students with the music composed by students at AIM - the major independent music-education provider in Australia, recognised for delivering exceptional music tuition and unique industry-focused programs.
The SFS – AIM relationship has developed over the last five years at a grass roots level, with students from both institutions collaborating on films together. This screening showcases the fruits of such collaborations.

The ten films to screen are:
1. Resonance
2. Sweat
