The cream of Sharbot Lake society (and some others) were decked out in their finest evening wear for the premiere screening of seven short films by Jesse Mills profiling some new and not so new-comers to Central Frontenac. The films provide an insight into the lives of those who were willing to share their homes and their thoughts about where they live, work, and play. They also are meant to serve as promotional videos for Central Frontenac as a place to move to.
Mayor Janet Gutowski came up with the idea for the videos, and Jesse Mills, a young, locally raised videographer who has been interning with the township for four months, conducted the interviews and did the filming and editing.
The films, which are each about 5 minutes in length, feature some stunning landscapes and descriptions by the subjects. They are available for viewing on the township's website centralfrontenac.com.
The opening, which included a red carpet, wine and cheese, was organized by Mayor Gutowski and the staff at the St. Lawrence Employment Centre next door, in particular the center's manager Karen McGregor. The Oso Hall was full for the showing, and the audience response was overwhelmingly positive.
