Are you someone who likes to promote or encourage others to speak Inuktitut? Are you willing to help make a video?
The Language & Culture division, partnered with Nicolas Castel (filmmaker) is creating a video to encourage people to speak Inuktitut more comfortably and freely. This project is for all Nunatsiavut beneficiaries who would like to send in a video clip.
The video can be of yourself or of you and your family speaking or teaching Inuktitut. The video must be 15-30 seconds long and recorded horizontal on your mobile device.
This is for Nain residents only; to book an appointment with Nicholas, you can call 922-2051/2052.
There is also a short list of encouraging Inuktitut phrases that you can use if you are interested.
All participant names will be entered for a prize draw and entries can be sent to robyn.martin@nunatsiavut.com, and rita-ann.dicker@nunatsiavut.com.
If you need help with your translations for your video, please contact Robyn Martin or Rita-Ann Dicker.
The deadline to submit your videos is Friday, July 23, 2021.
