Slideshow Description

The Adam D. Kamil Media Awards were developed to help UC San Diego undergraduates polish their skills in film production and to help them realize their creative potential in this field. Adam was a UC San Diego Department of Visual Arts major with a passion for the power of media to connect people.

To honor the memory of their son, the Kamil family established the Adam D. Kamil Media Awards. The awards consist of a grand prize of $2,000 and two finalist prizes of $1,000 each. “We hope that through this award, Adam’s creative spirit will inspire others to develop their talents and to grow as sympathetic and sensitive individuals,” said Elaine Kamil.

All submissions were viewable in the Kamil Gallery May 17-25, and are currently available in the Kamil Gallery Online. Winners were announced at an in-person ceremony ending Spring Quarter 2023, where the grand-prize winning project was screened.

  • “Les Girls” by Citlalli Martinez Cano
