Ethnic Expressions from the Mosaic of the Americas
Martinique Coastline |
With Producer Ann Armstrong Scarboro of Mosaic Media Arts, Full Duck Productions has directed and edited the documentary series, "Ethnic Expressions from the Mosaic of the Americas." These dynamic interviews with writers and artists whose roots lie in the Caribbean present their vision, passion and art, along with historical background and visual illustration. The documentary videos are suitable for upper-secondary or college classes in ethnic literature, multiculturalism, history, French language, Caribbean studies, and creative writing. They address topics of slavery, cultural alienation and regeneration, Creole culture, French policies in the colonies, Caribbean politics, Caribbean literature and art, and the role of the artist. Some titles available in French and English or with Teacher's Guide. More titles to come. A video based on an interview with award-winning writer Edwidge Danticat was released in 2006. An interview with an award-winning ceramist, artist and historian, Victor Anicet, was released in 2008.
Lakewood Symphony Orchestra

The Lakewood Symphony Orchestra is an all volunteer organization that generates five community concerts a year. Programs could not be produced without extensive fundraising, such as auctions and garage sales, and a massive drive to increase ticket sales to fill their new venue at the Lakewood Cultural Center. Full Duck Productions volunteered to provide a 30-second Public Service Announcement for broadcast on Lakewood local channel KLTV to boost audience attendance.
SCORE

A SCORE executive asked Full Duck to aid him creating an illustrated presentation of how to counsel clients seeking advice to start a small business. Full Duck succeeded in keeping within the low budget project by providing a set for shooting a mock counseling consultation, shooting creatively and accomplishing the editing in one short session.
