+ SAE Dubai’s Head of Film Hits Big Screen +++ SAE Dubai Students’ Award for Thought Provoking Film +++ SAE D Index n SAE Dubai was among the high profile names at the region’s largest pop culture and entertainment festival - the 2013 Middle East Film and Comic Convention (MEFCC). MEFCC is the only consumer event for fans of cult entertainment and popular culture in the Middle East. Launched as a consistent outlet for the many thousands of fans in the region it also supports the media, licensing and entertainment industries. The event also encourages a new generation of artists, writers, directors and entrepreneurs within the entertainment and artistic field. This year SAE Dubai teamed up with TwoFour54’s Creative Campus to host some amazing free workshops for all those who attended. Topics ranged from Middle Eastern Manga to scriptwriting with Max Landis. After the overwhelming success of MEFCC last year, the organisers knew that they had to make the 2013 event even better. It did not disappoint. With a stellar line-up including Alan Tudyk, Sean Astin, Warwick Davis, Manu Bennett, and Max Landis, the two day event involved celebrity question and answer sessions. There were also photograph and autograph opportunities, film screenings, artist workshops, collectables, and enough activities to cater to every age group. SAE Dubai is looking forward to next year already. n es n.
