CINEMAPUA
CINEMAPÚA is an annual Digital Student Short Film Festival of Mapua University. It started as an annual activity in 2002 open only to Mapua students. Cinemapúa 2011 was a perfect move to make the students’ film festivity more accessible to a bigger audience with SM Cinema as a partner. The Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival provided Cinemapúa winners the slots in 2011 and 2012 at the Cultural Center of the Philippines, as exhibition films.
CineMapua encourages student filmmakers to explore themes on arts and culture. The film festival accepts live-action videos or animations, in a narrative format, in any of the following genres: drama, comedy, musical, action, suspense, historical, science fiction, or adventure with emphasis on depicting and preserving the values of social realities and cultural heritage such as local folklore, traditions, language, and social knowledge.
