Small Business Development Center Press Record Video Workshop
Oct 4 all-day

Video is crucial for reaching and connecting with your customers online, but what if you don’t have a professional camera or the budget to hire someone? What if we told you that you can easily film and edit professional videos using free apps and the smartphone that you already own!

Spend the morning with professionals from Creative Cannon as they teach you WHY you should be using video, WHAT content you should include, and HOW to make it happen.

 You’ll do some test filming and editing with them before you spend the afternoon making your own video! All you need to bring is your smartphone, yourself, and if you choose, a few people on your team to participate. We’ll even provide you with a Bluetooth tripod that’s yours to keep!

Check out some of the videos others have made in Press Record!

Let’s Art Amarillo – The Barrio Project Press Conference
Oct 16 @ 10:30 am – 11:00 am

Join us and get the scoop on Let’s Art Amarillo: The Barrio Project. The Barrio Arts Committee selected 20 locations and people that have a story to tell about the history of the barrio neighborhood. Many of these locations are no longer standing. Many of the people are no longer alive. And yet their significance to Amarillo remains. See locations at www.barrioartsproject.com

Artists are invited to tell these stories through painting, sculpture, photography or other mediums. Entries are due on December 21. It is no cost to enter, and accepted pieces will be for sale at the Barrio Arts Project Show January 16-18. Artists keep 50% of the sale’s price and the Barrio Neighborhood Planning Committee receives 50% of the proceeds to help with their projects.
