The UW Communication Leadership Graduate Program hosted its annual Screen Summit 2024 on May 31, showcasing exceptional student projects and commemorating the legacy of the late Matt Chan.
In a heartfelt tribute, the Story Award was renamed the Matt Chan Storytelling Award, honoring Chan’s impact on storytelling and community engagement. Attendees were treated to a short video tribute featuring Chan and testimonials from his former students.
The program highlighted 17 outstanding projects submitted for the Matt Chan Storytelling Award. These projects, including 13 video, 4 audio, and 2 storytelling entries, exemplified narrative excellence and creativity.
This year’s winners were Mihye Chung, Maien Sandberg, and Yinuo Hong for their project “Your State, Your Budget, Your Voice.”
