NMC Students Explore Careers behind the Scenes in Media and The Arts Lights. Camera. Actions! Grade 9 students at NMC were treated to an exceptional week of experiences related to Film, Theatre, and Broadcast Media. Thanks for the work of many Winnipeg Professionals, our students have the opportunity to explore a number of different areas behind the scenes of media and the Arts. They started their week at the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre for a tour of the production areas and a first- hand view of the production Million Dollar Quartet and Black Coffee. Students then had the opportunity to meet and work with Lighting Designer, Scott Henderson, who gave them a taste of the world of lights. Scott taught them to hang, cable, and focus lights, and then showed how those lights work together to create an effect.

NMC Students Explore Careers behind the

Scenes in Media and The Arts Lights. Camera. Actions! Grade 9

students at NMC were treated to an

exceptional week of experiences related

to Film, Theatre, and Broadcast Media.

Thanks for the work of many Winnipeg

Professionals, our students have the

opportunity to explore a number of

different areas behind the scenes of media

and the Arts. They started their week at

the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre for a

tour of the production areas and a first-

hand view of the production Million Dollar

Quartet and Black Coffee. Students then

had the opportunity to meet and work with

Lighting Designer, Scott Henderson, who

gave them a taste of the world of lights.

Scott taught them to hang, cable, and

focus lights, and then showed how those

lights work together to create an effect.

The next day students toured MidCan Studio with Film Training Manitoba where they

learned about the Film industry in Winnipeg from Benjie Aytona and Kelly Dodds. This

experience was followed by a full day at CBC radio. Students got a tour, sat in a story

meeting, created a mock broadcast and then were interviewed live! The students also

had the opportunity to attend a show at MTYP, tour the stage and backstage area and

meet with the director, meet with Rap Artist Pip Skid at Graffiti Arts Studio, and finally,

learned all about Broadcast Media and New Media Design from the Louis Riel Arts and

Tech teachers.
