Richards A former Bowmanville High School graduate has captured the TVOntario Filmfest Long Documentary Documentary Award for 1992. Tammy McMullen, who will soon graduate from Niagara College of Applied Applied Arts and Technology, received her award at a ceremony on Tuesday, May 5, at the John W.H. Bassett Theatre at the Metro Toronto Convention Convention Centre. Ms McMullen edited three hours of tape down to a 21-minute documentary documentary on the effects of child abuse on an adult survivor. For Ms McMullen, the effort began began during the fall of 1991 when she decided to take on the project after being being contacted by one of her instructors.'An instructors.'An adult survivor of childhood abuse had contacted the Film and video video department. When her instructor told her about the project, she said she knew she wanted to do the project. "Right off the bat, I knew I wanted to deal with it," she said. She knew the topic would be difficult. difficult. However, she said she would be willing to listen. "The topic held a certain amount of emotion" and John and Nancy Wal- dock, the couple she Filmed, were in control of the information provided for the documentary. "I started the project in October. I set up the cameras in the studio -- one for a front view and another for a side view. "It was Filmed on three-quarter inch film using port-a-paks," she said. The hardest part about the project was the editing job. "I just Finished editing at the end of March. I edited and edited." During the editing process she found it "hard to keep my distance." Ms McMullen had several different different people come in to take a serious look at the edited versions of the documentary. documentary. She found she wasn't entirely happy happy with the cuts she made, but was comfortable with the video's impact. Next came the final touch: music. The music came from Jim Hayden with 'fircsign productions.' "It added the extra element," she noted. How docs she feel about winning the award? "It was kind of a shock." she said. However, after viewing clips from the two other documentaries entered in the category she was in, she believes believes hers was the best. "I hope it (the video) will give me exposure and get my name out there," added Ms McMullen, who has already started her job hunt. Exposure is a sure thing. Currently, the therapist involved with the couple interviewed in the film is using the video during classes, said Ms McMullen. And Mr. Waldock is hoping to get large companies interested in the video. video.

PORT PERRY--A huge flea maricet has been proposed for the old Johnson Controls plant, just south of Port Perry. On Monday, representatives from Sanscott Enterprises Inc. presented the plans to council. The proposal is for a year-round market operating Saturdays and Sundays similar to the flea market held in Pickering. The group led by Marg Scott would like to?take over one-third of the existing building to provide space for up to 400 vendors inside and for additional vendors outside the building in the warmer months. According to Ms Scott, Johnson Controls has offered financial assistance for the project and is willing to provide some leeway on the rent involved. OSHAWA--Oshawa City councillors have voted 14--1 in favor of a no-tax increase budget for citizens. The $63.9 million budget means the average home owner will pay $579.79. That's 76 cents less than last year's tax levy. The budget sends a message to taxpayers, developers and GM that council is serious about controlling taxes, said Councillor Mike Armstrong. However, Councillor Dave Conway is predicting financial disaster for the city. He has also said city departments will not swallow the freeze. The city will end up paying for the cuts in future years, he said. Oshawa residents are currently facing increases in education and regional levies. Total amounts of these are in the $58 to $88 increases.
