Actor on Campus Today, Tomorrow

Ivan Rogers, an internationally-acclaimed actor and filmmaker, is on campus today and tomorrow to critique students' work, conduct workshops on producing films, and host a public screening of Forgive Me Father (2001) - a film Rogers wrote, directed, and starred in. You can see a trailer of the film here. He has also starred in Laserhawk (1997) and is currently working on the film, The Payback Man.

The first class open to all students will be at 10:50 a.m. tomorrow in Stanley Russ Hall, room 103.  During X-period tomorrow, he will be available for a question-and-answer session with UCA students in the same room.  The screening of Forgive Me Father will be in Reynolds Performance Hall at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow with another Q & A session afterward.

Rogers is here as part of the university's Artist-in-Residence program. You can see his complete schedule on campus here.

"His experiences are much more in line with what most of our students will experience as filmmakers," said Bruce Hutchinson, associate professor of digital filmmaking and director of graduate studies. "Luckily, because Mr. Rogers has such a wide experience, he can provide valuable insight to all of these students."
