“The 50 Yard Dash” (2015)

This quirky and silly mockumentary, starring two-time Silver Fox Award winner Kaitlyn Murphy, follows a day in the lives of twenty-something undergraduates. With graduation quickly approaching, college roommates and best friends Lauren and Allie must come to terms with their post-grad lives going in opposite directions. Directed by Rachael Black and Devin Barbaro, this short film explores the pressure and emotions of four years of college coming to a close, reminding us that the most important thing we’ll take away from our higher education is the memories we’ve made.

If you’ve just graduated as I have, let me give to you something that is guaranteed to hit you right in the feels… and if not, I hope to provide a few laughs to you anyway.

After many months of hard work, good times, and a screening at the Marist Silver Fox Awards,  I am extremely excited to present my senior capping film to you, the internet! I hope you have as much fun watching “The 50 Yard Dash” as we did making it.
