The Virginia Tech School of Performing Arts presents a Q&A with Movie Producer and Virginia Tech Alumnus Zak Kristofek on Thursday, February 20, 2025 inside the Squires Recital Salon located within the Squires Student Center on the campus of Virginia Tech.
Zak Kristofek (VT Class of 2013, cinema production/studies) is an accomplished leader in film production and development.
Kristofek will speak on his experience in the film world, how he got started, and the steps he took to achieve his goals. He is also interested in answering all questions as well and helping students understand more about finding a career in the film world after graduation.
Before heading TRACTION’s production and development departments, Zak contributed significantly to renowned films such as "Wildlife" starring Carey Mulligan and Jake Gyllenhaal, and Paramount’s "Book Club" starring Diane Keaton and Jane Fonda.
Known for his keen eye for compelling scripts and filmmakers, Kristofek has achieved recognition with placements on the industry’s The Black List and The Tracking Board’s Hit List. His recent works include the well-received " A Lot of Nothing" at SXSW and the action-thriller "Red Right Hand" starring Orlando Bloom and Andie MacDowell. Next up will be "The Midnight Pool" directed by James McTeigue ("V for Vendetta").
Admission is free and no reservations are required.
All students interested in film after graduation are welcome to come, as well as anyone who wants to learn a little bit more about the movie world.
The Squires Recital Salon is located at 241 Squires Student Center in Blacksburg, VA on the campus of Virginia Tech.
