CineSpace launches winning films into stratosphere at Houston Cinema Arts Festival (CultureMap)

Houston Cinema Arts Festival looked to the stars once again at the second annual CineSpace screenings and awards night. The special short film festival within the larger Fest began in 2015 as a HCAF and NASA partnership to inspire filmmakers and offer them the use of decades of footage from NASA’s archives to help them tell their stories.

Inspirational was truly the word of the evening this year as the final 15 entries were projected onto the IMAX screen at the Houston Museum of Natural Science’s Wortham Giant Screen Theatre giving the audience of film, science and space buffs a glorious expanded view of our solar system and beyond.

Before the CineSpace awards began, the HMNS and HCAF partnered for another special showing of immersive animation and dance films in the newly renovated Burke Baker Planetarium that set the exploratory and innovative mood for the evening.
