Student Upstart Films can now be called “the award winning” Student Upstart Films. That’s right, our PSA (starring America’s Next Top Model Mike Ostrov) won FIRST place in the SIFE/MPAA contest.
Upstart gets a 50% share of the winnings ($3000) and the PSA will air on MTVu so students at student unions all around the country can watch it with the volume turned off and ignore it.
Congratulations everyone who worked on it! Congratulations Upstart Films!


It’s vindicating to learn that all those hour and a half long meetings actually materialized into something tangible.



Judging by the comments on the YouTube page, maybe they should have been cupcakes.
