Greenwood resident Leo Pfeifer and his colleagues in Ballard High School’s Digital Filmmaking Program won five High School Awards of Excellence at the regional Emmy Awards last weekend. Pfeifer was part of all five winning entries: Short Form Fiction and Writing for “Stolen”; Long Form Non-Fiction and Photographer/Editor for the documentary “Clipped Wings” (which explores the impact of the ban on gays in the Boy Scouts of America); and Short Form Non-Fiction for “GeoForce: A Journey to Understanding.”
Pfeifer, a junior (middle of the back row, above), and his fellow BHS students won five of the six categories in which they were nominated.
