Almost immediately, 20 large boxes that had shipped new lab stools to the science department showed up at JCHS Film's door. Studio executive Tyson Harty, seeing the enormous potential of the plethora of prodigiously-sized boxes, turned none away . . . The first (and arguably most fabulous) "box film" produced was "Boxy", which won first place at the inaugural Georgia 2021 TSA Film Contest at Jekyll Island.

The "box" motif was indeed interesting and perhaps having a yearly theme will continue, but it will not be boxes. All the boxes were ceremoniously burned at the Box Bonfire . . . only "Boxy" remains as a symbol of the 2021-22 JCHS Film program.
