Al and April film Montana King at HOTCF " Cornering the Market" in Carnegie
In this video, Al and April film Montana King in her splendid costume for "Cornering the Market" in Heart of the City Festival in Carnegie Centre in Vancouver. It was a rainy Thursday night!! There was free popcorn givenout by Ali, clown noses on the show participants, ambient sounds being played by Sean Gunn and Mike Richter, films done by Hendrik, Frederick and Quinn and even an impromptu skit done by Al as Stephen Harper engaging with the community. Leon with his gold megaphone and his soapbox were hilarious!! Lots of fun and lots of laughter :) Many thanks to Theresa Vandertuin, Associate Artistic Producer of the Heart of the City Festival :)
Multimedia Presentation
CORNERING THE MARKET
Thursday October 30, 8pm onwards
Corners of Main & Hastings
Expect the unexpected from this open-air multimedia presentation! The
LifeSkills Film and Video Group collaborates on this outdoor visual
display that employs video projection to add illumination to the
buildings at Main and Hastings. On view will be video pieces of new and
previous works. LifeSkills works in socially and politically
provocative film and video and is concerned with the manner in which
our neighbourhoods and city are being rapidly transformed and
gentrified. Participants on the street include among others, Sean Gunn
who will provide tonal atmosphere on the digital horn. If you’re on the
street, you’re part of the presentation! Free

APril films Glenn Nicholson and Tom Wright of the Foresters who put on the " Pumpkin Patch" event at Maclean Park
I filmed Glenn Nicolson and Tom Wright at
"Pumpkin Patch", a local annual event held at Maclean Park by the Foresters in
partnership with DERA and Strathcona Community Centre.
In this video, Glenn and Tom speak with delight how they picked up the pumpkins from Felix Farms, generously donated by manager Peter Gachon with transportation provided by Burnaby Moving.
About 150-160
pumpkins were placed onto the field of Maclean Park, where neighborhood
children from the DTES could come by, pick up a pumpkin and do some carving.
Children had the opportunity to get face painted, do chalk drawings, or
even get sparkly colors and glitters sprayed onto their hair. Candy
bags were also given out and smiles and laughter were all around. :)
