Santwon Hines originally appled for University of Southern California's school of film in 2018. After being rejected he decided to sharpen his craft and keep pursuing his dream. Many of the renowned film makers today are alumni of USC's school of cinematic arts. 

Hines applied again in 2020 and was admitted. He has been advancing his skills by gaining experience in his classes and producing short films. One project that he is currently working on is based in State College. I was able to interview him about his most recent work and the direction he is going in. He shared his interest of entering the world of composition through film making and showed his latest project's sound and what its intentions are.
