AHA MEDIA at the Opening of the Vancouver City Centre – Canada Line Station
AHA MEDIA was very pleased to attend the Opening of the Vancouver City Centre – Canada Line Station located at Georgia and Granville Streets.
Lineups stretched around the block and the wait time for the Free Skytrain ride to Richmond were more than 2 1/2 hours!!
In this video, Today, August 17, 2009 is a historical day! The Canada Line is open to the public and goes between Vancouver and Richmond
The line makes Vancouver the only city in Canada to provide a high speed link between its airport and downtown core
This was filmed by April Smith of AHA MEDIA on a Nokia N95 mobile cameraphone. April is passionate and skilled in making Nokia films by exploring mobile media production through the camera lens of a cellphone. For a better quality version of this video, please DM April Smith @AprilFilms on Twitter.

AHA MEDIA attended The Miss Guide’s “Walking the Ruins: Fragments of Vancouver
April Smith and Peter Davies of AHA MEDIA on behalf of W2 Community Media Arts http://www.creativetechnology.org attended the “Walking the Ruins: Fragments of Vancouver with commentary by The Miss Guides made up of a art collective of Natalie Doonan, Katharine Somody and Sean George .
AHA MEDIA found the walk a delightful blend of a historical tour and a theatrical performance. It was like taking part of a National Film Board of Canada documentary but in real time and experience 🙂
A unique blend of historical tour and street theatre, this one hour walk will make you experience Vancouver as though for the first time. Using the city as their stage, The Miss Guides will lead you through the gritty underbelly of a city teeming with secrets.
From glamour to grime, Walking the Ruins explores four surprising urban sites, drawing unexpected connections between the forgotten past and overlooked present.
Audiences are limited to 12 adults, and groups meet on the Northwest corner of Granville and Hastings Streets, in front of Sinclair Centre, rain or shine ( bring an umbrella )
Walking the Ruins runs July 9 – August 1: Thursdays + Fridays at 7pm; Saturdays at 2pm.
Tickets $20 ( includes entry to Harbour Center’s The Lookout, valued at $13) available through: http://www.themissguides.com
