The following is an email communication issued by Edna Frenchwood regarding the Mid-Michigan Youth Media Initiative.The Michigan and DeWitt Creativity Groups are proud to support this effort at developing a strong youth oriented local film movement. What a great way to showcase the many talents of Mid-Michigan youth in relation to film and video Many thanks to Edna and others for taking the time and energy to provide such opportunities:
Dear Media Lovers,
In September 2017, we launched the Mid-Michigan Youth Media Initiative, during the 'Manifest Your Life To Win' event. A Special thanks to our guest speakers, Dr. Princess Funmi Hancock, Dr. Sherri Henderson, Chris Holman, Jeff Croley, Jason Lafay and Dan Hagfors. A Special thanks to our sponsors, Shaheen Chevrolet, Dean Transportation, LCC AMA Team, ChiTV, Chichimovies, and The Story Tellers Bistro. We are excited to share that we have been a part of our first film project, "The Strangers Game."
We want to thank everyone who participated in the past weekend's shoot. Special thanks to 'The A Team' from The Lansing Community college and The Michigan Creativity Group {Dewitt High School}, who had two of their students play our lead roles! It was exciting to see them learn the lines and show up strong. Our youngest actress was 8 years old! Please review a few pictures here: http://www.chichimovies.com/home.html
The film will be entered into the Capital City Film Festival's {Fortnight contest} and is the first of many projects we plan to embark on. We will send out the trailer as soon as it is ready. Thank you, for all you do and for supporting the youth in media!
Kind Regards,
