Talking to high schoolers in Fort Qu'Appelle

On Wednesday I drove out to Fort Qu'Appelle to talk about film and the film department as a career at the high school job fair. It was all rather a blur. I did three talks to three different groups, each 45 minutes long, with barely a minute between each. I had notes but, as is my nature, didn't follow them closely enough so when I reached the third group, I couldn't remember what I'd told them and what I hadn't. Everyone was polite and two or three people actually seemed like they were interested in making films as careers. One teacher from Lumsden told me they have a new grade 11 photography course, so some new interest might come from there.
