Manitoba filmmaker Sydney Worden has recently completed her short documentary Variations, which she developed through DOC Manitoba and Film Training Manitoba’s DEEP DIVE Program in 2023.
During this program, Sydney was selected to be mentored by veteran filmmaker Danielle Sturk, where she received one-on-one skills development. These training sessions supported Sydney in bringing her vision to life through specialized coaching on organizational aspects of filmmaking, including pre-production and technical aspects. Sydney’s documentary explores adults who participate in recreational dance at the Royal Winnipeg Ballet (RWB).
