Unscripted Twillingate Digital Arts Festival Newfoundland Canada 2023

Unscripted Twillingate Digital Arts Festival Newfoundland Canada 2023 is an event that really excites me and is hosted at The Anchor Inn Hotel and Suites Twillingate. My love of film and digital arts runs deep and this festival features talented artists from NL in a place where we can create, share, celebrate and learn. Featured workshops at the digital arts festival include presenters including local television producer and director Dan Warren, Digital Creator James March, Musician/Photographer/Graphic Designer Richie Perez and world-renowned outdoor adventurer Dr. TA Loeffler.

Dan Warren will be offering a 3 part workshop where you’ll learn the art of unscripted storytelling using elements of both digital arts and TV production. Part 1 serves as an introduction to the topic while Part 2 is all about having fun and capturing content which takes place during “Treat on the Trail”. Part 3 concludes with editing and final production. “Treat on the Trail” transforms the workshop into a delicious culinary experience and features local Top Chefs including Roary McPherson, Shaun Hussey, Michelle Leblanc, Christopher Mercer, Stephen Quinton and Baker/Cake artist Catherine Sansome.

Furthermore, Content Creator James March talks about the latest developments in AI and explores new creative possibilities. Well known Photographer Richie Perez features a session on improving photography skills as either a beginner or expert. The workshop focuses particularly on the skillful art of slow-exposure flash photography. When the work is done relax, have some fun and enjoy a traditional Newfoundland kitchen party featuring island bands “The Split Peas” and headliners “Those Beautiful Ugly Sticks”. Additionally, don’t miss out by performances by musicians Adam Baxter, Jared Waterman and Shelby Maye.

On Saturday night don’t miss the soirée at Captains Pub in Twillingate where you can be guaranteed a good evening with a performance by talented NL artist Sherman Downey. And finally, don’t miss the opening night reception at St. Peter’s Church were festival goers can snack on finger foods, mingle and enjoy the beautiful music and fiddle playing of ECMA nominated artist Rosemary Lawton. On Sunday up tie up your hiking boots and finish off the arts festival with a guided hike on the coastal RockCut Twillingate Trail. Don’t forget to spend some time appreciating the work of local Newfoundland and Labrador artists at the Digital Art Exhibit showcasing artists Anne Troake, Bruce Pashak, Joseph Kisusi and Rhonda Pelley.
