The Official Screening Of Burgundy Voices!

June 29, 2011

Come one, come all!

This event will be the official screening of the documentary “Burgundy Voices”. We have worked tirelessly to bring to you a film that gets to the heart of Little Burgundy and we could not have done it without the help of the community and many others!

Please come out and show support for this wonderful demonstration of stories, history and dreams!

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

We’d like to thank everyone who contributed to the project for their generosity, talent and positive energy. This was an amazing and meaningful experience for all of us, and we hope you felt the same. We also discovered exceptionally talented individuals during the process, and hope you continue to pursue your passion in the future!

Copies of the DVD are available in limited numbers at DESTA, 1950 St-Antoine West. Due to the cost of printing DVD’s, we are asking for a small donation (that will go directly toward printing more DVDs) although it is by no means required.

Again, thank you for everything, and feel free to email us at burgz.doc@gmail.com should you have any questions about the project!

Cheers,

Imaan, Meg and Charly

 

Burgundy Voices: Advanced Screening

June 13, 2011

Hey everyone,

The project is wrapping up this week. Here’s what the schedule looks like:

On Tuesday (tomorrow), we’re doing a preliminary screening of Burgundy Voices – this is your opportunity to comment, voice your questions and/or concerns about the project so far, so we can make the necessary changes before the final screening. This preliminary screening will take place at 6PM @ DESTA, 1950 St-Antoine West. Snacks and refreshments will be served, of course. You can join the event on facebook.

The OFFICIAL screening of Burgundy Voices will take place on Thursday June 16th at 6PM @ 1950 St-Antoine West. Mark the date, and spread the word! The documentary will be bilingual, with subtitles all along, and refreshments will be served. Everyone is invited!

Also, as you can imagine, we’ll be in the TVMcGill office editing for the next couple of days so if you or anyone you know is interested in how a documentary is made, feel free to join us!

If you have any questions, email burgz.doc@gmail.com.

Cheers,

The Team

Hi Everyone,

The trailer for Voices of Burgundy is done! It’ll be screened at our meeting tonight, where we’ll talk about what has been done so far and what else needs to be done. We’re also going to plan out details for the screening, which will take place on the 16th or 17th of June (already!). We’ll be meeting tonight at 6PM at DESTA, 1950 St-Antoine West.
There’s a lot going on this week! There are editing workshops everyday at McGill from 4 to 7PM, and Imaan is producing the soundtrack with community members as well. Everyone is welcome to join in at any point of the process, so don’t hesitate to get in touch!
See you tonight

All week we will be offering open editing workshops from 4-7 in the TVMcGill office, located at 3600 rue McTavish, suite B23. As usual, there will be snacks and refreshments!

Spread the word, and please be sure to come by. If you would like to organize a workshop outside of those times or with a separate group, let us know and we can make the arrangements.
