SUMMARY:Wellpinit School District
DESCRIPTION:The 2018 NATIVE YOUTH MULTIMEDIA WORKSHOP partnered with Paramount Studios and conducted a workshop at Wellpinit Middle School in the Spokane Indian Reservation.  \nThe workshop was an intensive film program that was designed to teach acting\, writing\, directing\, camera operation\, and video editing to Native American youth.  In the program\,  Spokane Native youth produced four films on what is currently affecting their tribal community such as local fires\, drug addiction\, and struggles of language preservation. \nThe workshop also focused on encouraging Native youth to pursue careers in TV\, film\, and new multimedia. During our program\, Spokane Native youth toured Gonzaga University’s Broadcast & Electronic Media Studies and KSPS-PBS in downtown Spokane\, Washington! The purpose of these education tours was to expose them to viable career goals\, encourage them to pursue higher education and apply for studio internships that provide experience and salary. \nAt the end of the program\,  Native youth from the Spokane Indian Reservation presented their films from the weeklong workshop to the local community. Native actor Gil Birmingham attended the screening and congratulated the Spokane youth for their hard work! \nThe films produced in the workshops will be showcased at the 12th Annual LA SKINS FEST film festival in November at the Chinese Theater. Spokane Native youth will be invited to participate in the  2018 NATIVE YOUTH MULTIMEDIA WEEKEND program held Thursday November 15th – Sunday November 18th\, 2018 in Hollywood\, CA. \nThank you Paramount Pictures and the Spokane Indian Reservation for supporting Native youth in media! \n  \n \n \n \n \n\nAbout the Program:\nThe NATIVE YOUTH FILM WORKSHOP is a week long youth filmmaking program designed to teach acting\, writing\, directing\, camera operation\, and video editing.
