Posted: Sep 25, 2007 INDUSTRY STRATEGY SESSION POSTPONED
The Strategy Session originally planned for this coming Friday is being postponed. We have made the decision to postpone it to a time of year when we can get the maximum attendance from the broadest spectrum of the industry possible. Everyone is so busy now (which is, as always, wonderful to see!) we would be missing voices from key segments of the film community. The goal of the session is to develop strategy and programming to support the entire industry, and, as we're sure you'll agree, it is critical that we have industry-wide representation at the table as we do that.
Thank you to all who RSVPed for Friday! We will keep you informed as to when the meeting will take place: look for something in January of 2008. As always, our doors are open. If you have any questions or feedback for us, please contact Tara (tara@mmpia.ca), Carole (carole@mbfilmsound.ca) or Neila (nbenson@filmtraining.mb.ca)

Posted: May 22, 2007 Dry Cold Productions presents: NINE
Sunday, May 27 - 2:00 p.m.
CanWest Global Performing Arts Centre (at The Forks)
Nine is a musical adaptation of the Frederico Fellini film 8 1/2 . Fellini’s essentially autobiographical story concerns the difficulties of the film director Guido Contini, fresh off the greatest hit of his career so far, to endure a midlife crisis that has blocked his creative impulses and entangled him in a web of romantic difficulties. The original 1982 Broadway production was directed by Tommy Tune and starred Raul Julia as Guido, the only man in an otherwise all-female cast. (Actually there is a boy as well - the 9-year-old Guido.) The show won the Tony Award for Best Musical. A 2003 Broadway revival starred Antonio Banderas as Guido and again won a Tony, this time for Best Revival of a musical.

Posted: Apr 26, 2007 From C21: BBC's Worldwide ambitions
The internet has brought the BBC's ambition of universality closer to reality than ever before, but it has also brought the conflict between its public service remit and commercial activities into sharper focus. Jonathan Webdale hears the strategic view from the corporation's digital leaders on both sides of the fence.
Within a couple of weeks of putting programme excerpts on YouTube, the BBC witnessed more than 120,000 views of a clip featuring naturalist David Attenborough looking at the lyre bird, a native of Australia capable of mimicking any sound it hears.
Clips of Top Gear, the broadcaster's flagship motoring show, meanwhile, were viewed 2.5 million times during the same period. While the latter's popularity may well have been expected, the lyre bird's was proof of concept for BBC Worldwide's (BBCWW) director of digital media, Simon Danker (left).
