Bent Button Productions - UPenn's oldest and only film production group. Make your movie. Check out our stuff!
Bent Button Productions is the University of Pennsylvania's only film production group! We write, shoot, direct, edit, and sometimes act in the films to create an interactive, hands-on learning experience. All the members love entertainment, and we want to share our enthusiasm with others.
Operating as usual
Bent Button and Wharton Undergraduate Media and Entertainment Club are collaborating to teach a cinematography workshop on Tuesday! Learn the basics of film production and get hands on experience with camerawork -- all equipment will be provided.
