"Cleaning" is the result of the Vital CML Scriptwriting Contest. Vital Film Works in association with the Columbus Metropolitan Library held a scriptwriting contest for teens age 12-18. The entries were judged by industry professionals. The winner had their movie produced by Vital with this years winner being 14 year old Hilary Hirtle from Westerville. John Daugherty, Principal and CCO at Vital, developed the program along with the Vital CML Summer Film School. The FIlm School teaches kids the basics of filmmaking through a hands-on program which lasts 4 weeks during the summer. The summer of 2009 was the first year of the program and was a huge success. The 2009 program was held at the Linden and Northern Lights branches. There are plans to expand the program to more library branches in 2010. In these times of budget cuts the Vital team knew something had to be done to allow creativity to continue to grow in children. Funded solely by Vital, they donated their time and equipment to make the CML programs a reality. If you would like to help with any of these programs please don't hesitate to call or email John Daugherty at 614-294-1306 or click here.
