The society’s history:

Making Of was created in October 2007, after the ending of a former cinema club at HEC Paris created in May 1965. The Making Of team wanted to continue the tradition of film screenings on campus, however improve and expand the number of activities available to the students. Today making of is an extremely popular and active society at HEC Paris.
