“Professor F. Miguel Valenti brings a vast wealth of professional experience to his classes, which infuses his courses with real-world scenarios to prepare students for careers in film and media production.
At the core of Professor Valenti's classes is the advancement of mindful filmmaking — he challenges us to contemplate our options and the ethical implications of our choices. As his student, I have been motivated to imbue my work with professionalism and pride and to be an active student leader. He has supported and encouraged me throughout my academic career at ASU and mentored me through my internship.
Additionally, Professor Valenti’s industry involvement fosters film production and appreciation in the Valley, and also creates opportunities for his students during school and after graduation.”
