VALDOSTA, GA – Professor Marty Lang will be talking to the Valdosta State students about the University of Georgia’s MFA in Film program this coming Wednesday, January 22, at noon in Mass Media Rm 1001. Everyone is invited to attend.

As the Director of the Master of Fine Arts in Film, Television & Digital Media program at the University of Georgia, Lang will be talking about the difference between the MFA and other graduate degrees and UGA’s program in particular.

Lang is an award-winning teacher, filmmaker and writer. His book, The Self-Stustaining Filmmaker, was published in 2024. He has written and directed two feature films, including STAY WITH ME, named best feature film at the 2023 South Georgia Film Festival.
