Illinois State University
An Illinois State University faculty member has been recognized for his sci-fi screenplay about a chaotic near future that connects to many divisive issues in our present.
ISU professor John McHale teaches in the School of Communication. His screenplay “EcoFront” recently won the award for Best Film Script written by a faculty member from the Broadcast Education Association.
“The idea for the screenplay originally was looking at some of our harshest and most inhumane policies and thinking about what would happen if they were extended to their logical conclusion. And what we re left with an ecologically devastated landscape ruled by corporations,” said McHale.
