To complete the Withoutabox profile for OU, I Love You, I had to include a 250 word synopsis of our film (for the festivals programs, etc, if accepted).
OU, I Love You, inspired by the film Paris, je t’aime, is an anthology of short films about love, set on the University of Oklahoma campus. The film showcases numerous shorts exploring different types of love—romantic, platonic, patriotic, and more—combined into a feature-length film created entirely by OU students.
For this unique production, SFPC solicited directors’ reels and screenplays about love from all corners of OU. The response of creative students from a wide range of disciplines—from the usual suspects (Film and Video Studies, Journalism, Fine Arts and Drama) to the less expected (Finance)—was overwhelming. SFPC received fifty story ideas and scripts, as well as twenty-five director’s reels. Faculty judges then selected twenty screenplays and directors who were then given one month to film the screenplay of their choice on the OU campus. Over one hundred OU students have participated as writers, directors, actors, crewmembers, composers, and editors.
