Welcome!
The Tar Heel Mac Users Group
at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is proud to present
its second annual MiLife Carolina Media Festival, which aims to celebrate
college life through all of the Apple
iLife applications; iMovie
HD , iDVD,
iPhoto, iTunes
and Garage
Band. The MiLife Carolina Media Festival is a presentation of original
motion picture, musical and graphical presentations that represent the
creative college mind.
Various universities across the nation have undertaken their own iMovieFests
where college students compose works mainly using Apple's iMovie application.
Among the most notable institutions are Emory
University, Boston
College and Duke
University. The Tar Heel MUG at UNC-CH has taken this idea to a whole
new level by incorporating all of the iLife applications in one diverse
festival that celebrates University life.
MiLife Carolina is a new form of campus event like none other in that
it is all inclusive to any member of the University. Its goal is similar
to other events in that it puts the inspiration where it should be - in
the hands of those who make this institution great. Like Emory's original
Campus iMovieFest, the MiLife Festival endeavors to promote school spirit
through teaching, inspiring and uniting the entire university population.
For inspiration, you may want to check out Duke's iMovie festival, FroshLife.
Duke has held this event for several years now and its works may give
you inspiration, or at least show you how jealous Dookies are of Carolina!
Check
out the movies!
The Concept
Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to undertake different digital
life projects using the entire iLife
suite of applications, the main theme being “Life at UNC Chapel
Hill." These projects can involve sports, student organizations,
life as a student, teacher, etc. Be creative in diverse ways!
MiLife Carolina is flexible in letting participants/teams work at their
own pace (you have over a month to create your project), with the hardware
and software you're most comfortable with.
For inspiration, you may want to check out Duke's iMovie festival, FroshLife.

Participants can use their own equipment and computers, but they can also
use campus labs and check out available equipment (The
UL's MRC , The
School of Ed, etc). (see Resources)
