June 13 to August 5, 2005 Team Building, Training, Individual Video Production and Arts Exploration Five youth wrote, produced, directed, and edited their own video projects. The youth range in age from 16-24 and are all Indigenous or Aboriginal and include an Evan from Siberia, Russia; a Metis from Alberta; a Cree from Saskatchewan; and two Ojibway from northern and central Ontario. The diverse background of this small group led to an array of projects including a stop motion animation, a docu-drama, two personal experimental pieces, and a narrative drama. All of the projects explored personal experiences and gave a vehicle to express their voices to these youth while exploring their own environments. CSV provided expertise, equipment, and facilities through all stages of the youths videos including, concept development, story boarding, shooting, paper editing, rough cuts, and the final edit. The youth had access to CSVs camera and sound equipment and were able to perform their editing at CSV. Programmed in 2005
