University of Hawaiʻi Maui College Academy for Creative Media Honors graduate Faith Christy Soliven earned a Bronze Pele Award. Her award-winning entry The Stay Series: Hawaiʻi is Home was honored in the Television Advertising Campaign category in the College Division.

The Hawai‘i state Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism’s Creative Industries Division is supporting awards season marketing for local films. This is in an effort to reach global audiences and pave the way toward a more vibrant locally created media industry.

This year-long partnership provides all students across the University’s ACM System access to cinema and media mentorship, networking, filmmaker visits to classes across UH campuses and a complimentary HIFF43 pass.
