Dec 8, 2010: Photos from a recent video workshop conducted at the high school in Cartwright.

Lisa Rankin, Derek Norman, and Corey Hutchings took camcorders, laptops and editing software to Cartwright in November to train students in scriptwriting, filming, interviewing and editing. This was part of the SSHRC-funded project “Identify Yourself”, in which students will produce short films on the broad themes of being Metis and living in southern Labrador. The students will continue to film over the winter, and there will be further workshops to assist them in editing and producing their videos.
