No harm of course, but, it is April 1st. First, I must say thank you to all of you who entered the contest. There were more than 100 entries. I didn't want to do the old, FIRST, SECOND, THIRD, etc. So, when I was looking at the entries I quickly noticed that each project had a very unique quality. I gave each of these winning entries a title. This is not to take away from the overall excellence of the winning projects. This was a great experience for me to see all the great work being produced right now. I hope you find the same amount of inspiration as I did from these projects.

[...] Remember the MMS contest?  Just a quick note to the 10 winners. Check your email, gifts were sent. Since I'm on a bit of a budget with the site, I opted for the above gift, versus paying the postage on all the hefty prizes. So forgive the false advertising. But hey something is better than nothing. Maybe I'll work on getting some ads, then I can spend the money on sending the prizes. P.S. If you entered and won and you live outside the US, your prize has been mailed. [...]

WORKSHOPS:

Two-Week Documentary Workshop - Mississippi Delta
Start Date: February 14th, 2010

This 2-week HDV workshop is designed for photojournalists who are looking to make the move to videojournalism and the web, new documentary filmmakers who want to launch their careers in web and television documentaries and for those with experience in some aspects of film making that are looking to expand their skill, understanding and mastery of the whole process. Producers, cinematographers, editors and writers with narrative experience who are considering working in non-fiction film making are also encouraged to enroll.

Students will learn all aspects of the process including the importance of the still image, HDV camera, compact lighting methods, field sound, field editing and how to weave the story. To view an extended version of the course description, visit our website at barefootworkshops.org

Barefoot Workshops is a New York City-based not-for-profit 501(c)3, founded by Chandler Griffin in 2004, that offers short, intensive workshops around the world in narrative and documentary filmmaking. We assist organizations and individuals to use media, music and the arts, to accelerate progress and program goals in areas such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, conflict resolution, resettlement, youth empowerment, civil rights, and democracy building. We have worked with partners as diverse as UNESCO, Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation, The U.S. State Department and The Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI), to pioneer new formats and “media templates” that reinforce citizen-led, community-owned solutions to these challenges.

The main goal of Barefoot Workshops is to equip students with the knowledge and confidence to use sophisticated equipment while having a foundation that allows a person to create beautiful images regardless of the tools. At Barefoot, growing and learning as a filmmaker means growing and learning as an individual
