Payton L. North Honored at Western New England University

2017 May 15

Payton North took home Third Place honors at the Western New England University 15th annual Student Media Festival in the Photography category. North is a Communication major at the University concentrating on Journalism.

The Student Media Festival was created to provide students a venue to display their works to fellow students, faculty, staff, and the public so that students can be recognized for their successes in creating quality films and videos over the past year.

The Media Festival showcases a variety of works produced by currently enrolled undergraduate students at the University. Students create and submit music videos, television news reports, Westerner newspaper articles, WNEK radio programing, television commercials and public service announcements, and digital photography.

A panel of judges, comprised mostly of local media professionals, selected the winning student entries, while the audience voted for the People's Choice awards.

Congratulations Payton!

The Media Festival was sponsored by Cloud 9 Marketing Group and the University's Department of Communication. View photos!
