McBride lines up the shot
Sara McBride keeps her rifle dead steady at the NVSA shooting grounds. Her coaches, Gerd and Sonia Erasmus, had her do long and hard ski runs and then shoot both prone and standing in preparation for upcoming tournaments.
Documenting Madison Scott’s disappearance Sam Redding Omineca Express The video documentary that details the disappearance of Madison Scott over two years ago is finished and online. Creator Steven Scouller made the video with the cooperation of the RCMP and the community of Vanderhoof in order to help get Maddy’s face and information out there. “I first learned of Madison’s disappearance through an article that I read on the internet and I was intrigued by the unusual circumstances surrounding it,” said Scouller. “So, when I started to read more about it, I was sucked into the
horrific nature of what potentially could have happened to Madison. As an investigative documentary film maker I examined the case and decided that I could help by utilizing my skills as an awareness film maker to produce a film that could act as a central repository of accurate information.” The film is less than an hour long and available online on vimeo. It includes interviews of the Scott family, friends and several members of the community of Vanderhoof. Scouller was filming for about a week in May and a week in July, he flew out here and produced the film entirely out of his own pocket. He considers it his contribution to the Scotts. Scouller’s normal job is as an audio/visual officer and
official film maker for the Scotland police and most of his work revolves around true crime. “My history in filmmaking is long and vast,”said Scouller. “I’ve worked on producing music videos, I’ve worked on feature films, I’ve done a whole lot of stuff. What I wanted to do is concentrate my career on producing awareness films that are going to help people to get their loved ones back.” The short film begins with a heartfelt interview with Dawn Scott who describes the last moment she had with her daughter Madison. She said “have fun, be safe, I’ll talk to you tomorrow,” and that was the last thing she ever spoke to Madison. Continued on page 2
