The talent of Canadore College’s School of Media Arts will be on display this weekend at the North Bay Film Festival. Recent graduate of the Digital Cinematography program Emily Martin and current students Daniel Couchie, Dale Carrigan and Tyler Levesque will have their short films showcased throughout the weekend.
Martin’s short drama, “Exploit” is a psychological thriller about a woman who is trying to endure a media fallout after surviving a murderous rampage.
“Camani” is Carrigan’s short documentary. It took two prizes at the best in shorts at Cinefest Sudbury earlier this month. A short documentary, a portrait of artist Peter Camani, a creator of avant-garde structures and thought provoking paintings that captivate his perception of our global unity and social hierarchy.
Couchie’s “Normie” is a short drama depicting the story of a young man teetering on the brink of insanity. Will he accept help from his loved ones or embrace the blossoming madness within? The story of about euphoric recall in the mind of an addict is portrayed in Sugar, the work of Levesque.
Student productions will be screened in advance of feature films over the course of the festival schedule and the Student Emerging Filmmaker Award will be presented October 2nd at 5:30pm on the Lake Nipissing Boat Cruise.
