Shot on Site had another busy year doing work for the 12th annual Celtic Colours International Festival.

One of the best things about being involved in the festival is the fact we get to take in alot of events which, intern, equals out to good times.  Shout out to all the staff and volunteers that make the festival happen, also Dave Corkum and his crew at Sound Systems Plus, cool bunch of dudes.

The short video below gives a climpse into the magic that happens latenight at the Festival Club.  The clip features Gordie Sampson, Ashley Macisaac, Wendy Macisaac, and Mairi Rankin in impromptu jam.

Yesterday a hybrid crew from Cape Breton and Montreal wrapped a feature film “The Legend of the Psycho Forest Ranger” here in Cape Breton.  We were lucky enough to get out to watch it go down a few nights on set and even helped with a car explosion scene…almost burned the set down but everything came out peachy in the end. Congratulations to them can’t wait to see the final product!

This is a two day filmmaking event that provided four teams of five or six the opportunity to write, shoot, edit and screen their own short film.
