OECD developed a partnership with the Humboldt County Film & Digital Media Commission to work together in developing the fledgling digital media and film production industry on the North Coast. With Headwaters Fund support, OECD has involved several faculty, technical staff, and students in teaming up with Barbara Bryant, the Humboldt County Film Commissioner, to strengthen the Commission’s ability to increase digital media and film production on the North Coast. This grant is supporting HSU Courseware Development Center’s upgrade of the Commission's web site. A grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration is supporting
continued work on this collaborative project.
