Photo Highlights

On December 8, 2025, the Lewis Center for the Arts and the Center for Career Development co-presented the latest edition of Script to Screen with support from Princeton in Hollywood. The full-day Arts at Work seminar brought together current Princeton students with alumni working across the entertainment industry and offered a wide range of panels covering writing for television, careers in gaming, acting for camera, and innovations in scoring and animation.

The day gave Princeton undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to explore possible career paths in the arts and creative fields while forging connections between current students and alumni in the arts through more informal networking opportunities at lunch and breakfast.

Sessions included a panel on innovations in filmmaking and scoring led by Casey Kolb ’15, composer and tech entrepreneur, and Eric Hayes ’19 of Film & VFX Technology at Wētā FX; a television-writing workshop led by Selwyn Seyfu Hinds ’93; a gaming-industry careers panel featuring Insomniac Games founder Ted Price ’90, postdoctoral fellow in the Humanities Akil Fletcher, independent game designer and developer Matt Wang ’19, and Riot Games narrative writer Arden Youngblood ’14; and a closing discussion on acting careers with Irene Sophia Lucio ’08 and Lily Cowles ’09.
