With today’s technology, you would be hard pressed to put a film together without a computer. Because students are often on the go, a good, quality laptop is a must have.

Film production students are busy, busy, busy. That means that they aren’t always able to get their phone charged. This is a big deal, especially if they use the phone or notes or for filming. A charger like this will keep them connected for hours longer than they would typically be able to.
