LDGI had the pleasure of taking part in the judging process for the LSU Digital Media Festival. We we're glad to support LSU and the local digital artist. 

Digital Media Fest is a celebration of LSU undergraduate students who are producing intellectual and creative work using digital media, in and out of the classroom.  All entries are judged by experts.  The finalists in each category go on to compete at the ultimate level by delivering a 5-minute presentation about their entry to a community panel of judges.  Prizes are awarded to the best student work in each category and all entries will be displayed during the Media Fest Showcase.

Digital Media Fest is sponsored by LSU Communication across the Curriculum to encourage undergraduate students in all disciplines to experiment with digital media as a tool to effectively communicate knowledge, information, and ideas.

All finalist art can be viewed in the links below.
