Learn the art of directing in a one day, hands-on, lecture-based workshop at the Winnipeg Film Group with acclaimed filmmaker Sean Garrity (NSI Features First). The workshop takes place on Saturday, June 9 from 12 to 5 p.m.

Sean will go over his director’s process of translating a story from screenplay language to the language of cinema so it’s ready to shoot.

Peppered with stories from set and clips from films – his own as well as some favourites – Sean will talk about putting just the right amount of each formal element into your soup so it comes out tasting the way you want it to.

Workshop cost is $60 ($40 for Winnipeg Film Group members). Find out more and register.

Ice Blue, a feature film from writer Jason Long, director Sandi Somers and producer Scott Lepp (all NSI Features First), opens today in theatres across Canada.

The psychological thriller follows 16-year-old Arielle, who’s trying to live a quiet life in the countryside. Although she loves her devoted father John and their life together on an isolated farm, she can’t help but wonder what happened to her mother Maria, who abandoned them 10 years prior.

When Maria unexpectedly returns, everything that John told Arielle about their family comes into question. Soon, Arielle finds herself desperately trying to untangle her family’s dark past, as secrets and deceptions pile up and tensions rise.

Find your city and buy tickets.
