By Oscar Betham
In April 2014, I traveled from American Samoa to Hawai'i to shadow Nā'ālehu Anthony and the 'Ōiwi TV crew during the production phase of their series Nā Loea: The Masters. As an outcome of this training, PIC wants for me to return home to produce a Samoan Masters series with a similar aesthetic as Nā Loea while at the same time using the production as a training opportunity for interested students.

PIC is very excited to announce that we've finalized the changes to our Media Fund Call. Starting in October we will have a separate call for R&D applications. There will be two deadlines: January 9th and July 10th. Youʻre probably asking yourself: does this mean PIC isnʻt funding production or completion projects? Absolutely not! Deadlines for both production and completion applications will be on October 10th and April 10th. Read more here.
