This year’s Cecil Awards is shaping up to be the most creative, (student-)star studded, interactive awards show yet!  Check out the hot details here:


Cecil Awards 2013Our world is Unscripted.

We are inspired by the reality of the world featured in television and film, and create our own experiences in our everyday lives. Reality is everything that happens to you every day that you don’t plan for, couldn’t account for, and wouldn’t ever imagine. The students of Dodge College live their life each day unscripted: ready for whatever innovative, incredible and unpredictable opportunity arises. This is our reality.

Join us on the evening of Friday, May 17 for the Cecil Awards, an annual awards show recognizing the student achievements in film and media arts at Chapman University’s Dodge College.


The annual Cecil Awards show is a student-run event which highlights the hardest working people in Dodge College:

Full of awards, speeches, laughs, and awesome

Instagram moments, the show has grown from a short, ad-hoc spoof of a Daytime Emmy Awards-caliber pageant, to a lavish, full-fledged red-carpet ceremony which offers local sponsors the chance to support our student body as they celebrate themselves.

This year, the creative team planning the Cecil Awards has brought the concept full circle, in choosing the tongue-in-cheek theme of
reality TV
as the unifying force driving the festivities.

I’ll be giving you lots of updates about how to engage with the show in the upcoming weeks, but for now make sure to

INVENTION IS THE PRODUCT OF A CREATIVE OR CURIOUS MIND. INNOVATION IS SOMETHING THAT CHANGES THE LIFE OF THE CUSTOMER. IT CHANGES THE LIFE OF THE CUSTOMER IN SOME WAY, OR THE WORLD IN WHICH THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCES THINGS. THAT’S AN INNOVATION.
