Lanly Le

Lanly Le is pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in theatre with a film and media production concentration. Le headed a group of Arizona State University film students who won the AT&T Golden Mobile Award in the national Campus MovieFest competition in Las Vegas during the summer of 2010.

Le wrote and directed the short film, "Candid," which starred ASU students Kristine Lin and Hugh Chung and was shot on and around ASU’'s Tempe campus. The AT&T Golden Mobile Award was presented to the filmmaker who best creatively used a Samsung phone in his or her story.

Le had the chance to meet many inspirational student filmmakers, as well as industry professionals such as director Donald Petrie ("Miss Congeniality"), and Brett Ratner ("Rush Hour"). Le feels the coolest part was meeting her favorite film composer, Michael Giacchino ("Up," "The Incredibles," "Lost"), as well as many amazing screenwriters. Le says she learned so much and encourages any filmmaker to join the Campus MovieFest competition.
