BLUE MOUNTAIN PRESENTS¡K

WINTER EXPOSURES 2003!

A Multi-Media fieldtrip through your mind!
Choose your weapon! Film, Photography, Graphic Design or Street Media.

Blue Mountain is prepping to host the first ever Multi-media Showcase!

What is it? Winter Exposures is an event designed to nurture the talent of local youth, and media enthusiasts. A display of film, photography, graphic design, and street media illustration (graffiti). This multi-media showcase is an opportunity for all amateurs to display their talent, and gain exposure. We all see the people in the terrain park with their DV cameras, and amateur photographers shooting friends, and creating personal collections of video and profiles. Some shoot with intentions of sending their film / profile to a ski or board manufacturer for sponsorship, and some for wall decorations, but all people with this hobby are united with one common passion, and for the pure pleasure of film, design, and photography.

The dates of the event are set for Feb 21, 22 and 23 in the Weider and Beautiful Kandahar room, overlooking the hill and it¡¦s surroundings. Registration will take place on the evening of Feb 21st, print and film will be showcased all day Saturday, with the finalists and awards on Sunday, and a final showing of the winners films in the outdoor plaza in the Village at Blue.
