*THE IAIA 2006 SUMMER TELEVISION AND FILM WORKSHOP SEEKS TALENTED NATIVE
AMERICAN STUDENTS*
* *

The Institute of American Indian Arts, in collaboration with Disney-ABC
Television Group Talent Development Programs and the Walt Disney Studios, is
presenting the third annual Summer Television and Film Workshop. This year's
expanded, 8-week program will focus on directing, screenwriting, production,
animation and acting techniques. Faculty is drawn from the professional
ranks of the television and film industries. The program's curriculum will
also include mini-workshops and panel discussions with top decision makers
and other industry experts.

The 8-week workshop begins June 5 and continues through July 28, 2006, on
the Santa Fe, N.M. campus of the Institute of American Indian Arts.  The
workshop is geared to serving all experience levels, from entry positions to
seasoned professionals, and offers participants up to 12 hours of college
credit.

"In carrying out the IAIA mission, our educational and cultural pursuits
converge in a fundamental task of the Institute: to tell the Native American
story, a living legacy transmitted through Indian life, language, and
material culture. This career collaborative with industry leaders in film
and television will give us a powerful new voice to tell that story. We are
deeply grateful to Disney-ABC for their initiative and support," says Dr.
Richard Tobin, President, Interim, Institute of American Indian Arts.

"We are always looking for new and creative ways to expand our diversity
efforts here at Disney-ABC, and we believe this program will increase the
number of qualified Native American applicants to ABC and other industry
programs," says Carmen J. Smith, Vice President of ABC Talent Development.
Ms. Smith was instrumental in developing the collaboration with IAIA.

As part of the workshop, students will be formed into production and
post-production teams to facilitate a final product in the form of a video
of students' work. There will also be screenings of faculty and student
work, intermixed with other films and videos.

Beverly Morris (Aleut), director of the 2006 Summer Television and Film
Workshop, is a filmmaker with over fifteen years of producing and directing
experience, including documentaries on subjects such as Urban Indians,
Native arts and artists, and Navajo physicist Dr. Fred Begaye. Her knowledge
will guide the workshop's slate of classroom lectures, seminars and
one-on-one lab sessions.
