FILM: It has a bright future

It is interesting to note that the United States Department of Labor is projected that wage and salary employment in the motion picture and video industries will grow 14 percent between 2008 and 2018, compared with 11 percent projected growth for wage and salary employment in all industries combined. I have recommended to John Martin and Jay Lee of North Idaho College to add additional classes for film and media. I have suggested to Ron Nilson to inclusion of film and media courses at the proposed Kootenai Technical Education Campus. Film and Media would be excellent to enhance our economic diversity and employment opportunities.
