The Living History Project has commenced! 

 

The call for participants has been put out and the local media made inquiries as to the nature of the project during the monthly meeting of the History Circle at the library on 21 May.  Primary shooting at the library will begin in early June, starting with members of the Six Nations Public Library (SNPL) Board of Trustees.  We will then move right on to the participant pool while simultaneously arranging location shooting with our youth volunteers from the SNPL Teen Advisory Group (TAG).  The TAG members will be learning how to conduct "man on the street" run-and-gun documentary style filming of community member interviews.  These will have a "lo-fi" videographic feel to the footage which should contrast nicely with the controlled atmosphere of the lit-set interviews.
