  Choice Decision is about college student, Dan. On a Murphy's Law type of morning Dan runs into his own personal fairy godfather with a proposition to continue in his own chaotic life and to be responsible for fixing his problems or  use the godfather's magic to live his dreams in an instant.  Dan chooses magic and begins a journey not unlike James Stewart's in It's a Wonderful Life.

 The basic purpose of UMHB Student Cru Films is to provide students and associates hands-on experiences in the process of producing films from script to screen. UMHB film students are involved in every stage of the process. The UMHB Film Program involves student participation in authentic film production processes so that they are prepared to work on film sets and on film productions in real-world work. This script-to-screen process begins in the UMHB screenwriting course in which each student produces a short screenplay. Cru Films are submitted to film competitions and festivals.
DVD Copies of Cru Films are housed in the
Townsend Library at UMHB.
