The SPDA is hoping to attract other non-art students eventually and evolve the event into a better version of itself, which meaning that there is going to be a lot of trial and error.
Sometimes the students will be disappointed, bored or left with an echoing wtf?
Sometimes they will see a film that leaves them speechless, or fat full of words that push out heatedly between gulps of air.
Brian Godwin, the SPDA's treasurer and graphic design guru that attended the event, optimistically and enthusiastically said, "This is such a great idea and I hope it grows and we continue to do it and reach out to more people … communication is the means in which we know each other and everything we know about the world."
Another art student, Liz Layton, who recommended this first film, thinks that there is room for growth because "students of all kinds could obviously find enjoyment from this event" and the more diverse the backgrounds of attending students becomes, the more likely students will be exposed to a film or a director they did not know of previously.
Even if the attending group remains fairly small, it will encourage a sense of community within the art students themselves, which is a small community, though nonetheless active and emphatic in their pursuits.
