MacLeod 9 Film Productions – FILM Production Company
http://www.macleod9.com/film
Scott’s focus in his film projects is on using a variety of media combining photography, video, and film. The historical themes that I explore in my work are based on storytelling from ancient mythological texts, the archetype, to personal testimonials. In this series of projects I have used the old art of storytelling through contemporary media. This work demonstrates a continuity that and has brought me to my recent project After the war with Hannelore which is seven vignettes dealing with one woman’s cold war experience in Berlin from 1945 to 1980. |

La Raza Group – INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH ART COLLECTIVE
http://www.larazagroup.com/
‘’La Raza Group had a unique and interesting place in the Canadian arts scene in the 1980s. Not only was this artists group self generated but it was also entirely self supporting. Without grants, without any governmental or corporate support, La Raza was born out of a desire to transform the public attitude to art. Art was not something kept in galleries or museums. It was in the streets, out in the open where people lived and breathed.’’ - John K. Grande |
