PRIMAA Open House

Huge thanks to everyone who came down for our open house Sept. 12! Thanks to the Showcase Centre for the space and bar service; to the Newcastle Kings for a great rock set; Cam Belseth and Dark Mass Productions for the camera demo.

With refreshments on hand, PRIMAA hosted 20-30 local folks interested in different aspects of the media arts. We were thrilled with how diverse and engaged everyone was. Thank you!

We also screened some films by local filmmakers:
- The award-winning HB (dir. Nathan Fast)
- Cream Cheese (dir. Mike Evans)
- Tasman Jude "Take You Away" music video (dir. Andrew Jones)

- Wand "There is a Place" music video (Dir. Dalen Landis)

Thank you to the filmmakers for letting that happen.

Here are a few images from the open house. There are more up on the PRIMAA Facebook page. Head on over and like the page for updates, useful info and more.
