Waterloo Stratford Campus February Events

[Kayleigh Platz]

We have some fantastic events happening this February. Join us as we talk digital media careers, Harry Potter, and the hype about blogging!  We hope to see you out in Stratford!
Harry Potter: Heroic Fantasy, Murder Mystery or Videogame
Wednesday February 15, 2012 7PM-9PM
Stratford Public Library
19 ANDREW St
Stratford, ON N5A 1A1

The Harry Potter series - both books and films - has been categorized both as children's stories and particularly the later books, as stories of heroic fantasy, but other well-known narrative structures seem to be at play. Join Neil Randall as he examines the possibility that J.K. Rowling and the film-version screenwriters, intentionally or unintentionally, drew us in by giving us both classic mysteries and level-based videogames.

Blogging Pains

Wednesday February 22, 2012, 7PM-9PM
Waterloo Stratford Campus
6 Wellington St, Stratford N5A 2L2

Blogging, either professionally or personally, is a fun and easy way to express yourself online.  Join us to learn how to pick the right blogging platform, write for the web, and share your content.  No coding experience is required!  You'll bring your own laptop and use the equipment you are familiar with.  An excellent session for individuals looks to start their own business or expand their reach to the online world.  Also a great format to record and share your life and the changes that happen as you live it.

We'll walk you through the most popular platforms, and help you set up your own and get started.  You don't need to be a writer to be a blogger!
