The School of Media, Art and Design is proud to present the annual MAD 48-hour Film Challenge. Eight MAD programs will participate in this challenge. Working in small groups, students will focus on different aspects of film/video/photo production. This exciting event will take place during Week 1 of the term. All films produced during the 48 Hour Film Challenge will be screened off campus on a date to be determined.
The Photography program at Durham College partnered with Spinal Cord Injury Ontario (SCIO) to support SCIO in marketing, communications and membership efforts. Since telling the story is a key enabler to achieving SCIO’s ambitious plans for growth, students are asked to create compelling photos and content to draw stakeholders and clients to their website. Students get the opportunity to work directly in the field for one of SCIO’s major events - Ski and Snowboard day - where they are asked to capture the spirit of the day. This opportunity allows students to work directly with clients in the “real-world”, access real-time coaching and feedback from their professors, promote teamwork, and test those vital soft skills necessary to succeed.
See the action behind the scenes at SCIO Ski and Snowboard day below.
As part of their program, Photography students work directly with real industry clients, including not-for-profit and community organizations, on a variety of projects. Doing so provides students with access to real-time coaching and feedback from their professors. The experiences also promote teamwork and help students to develop and test the vital soft skills necessary to succeed their chosen field.
