July 13, 2018

July 13, 2018 – Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ students working toward their degree in Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­'s Digital Media Technology program have created a web series currently available on Amazon. The series, "Weird U", is described by professor Marc Shahboz as a "horror/weird tales anthology that takes place in the Lovecraft universe" filled with odd creatures and mythical beasts.

Weird U is set at the fictitious Hoggetowne University, the number one college in the nation (sound familiar?), located in Gainesville. The series is shot on location on Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­'s Northwest Campus, with additional footage from the Harvey Sharron Field Laboratory (aka the Bat Cave).

Everything in the series has been created by the students and faculty at Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­, including the video effects, soundtrack and graphic design. Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ students released the first four-episode season in May and are planning on releasing season two at the start of the upcoming fall term.
