Virtual Emeritus Award Presentation Videos 2020, and 2021

In addition to the Convocation Video, we also produced 2 separate videos for the 2020 and 2021 Emeritus award recipients, to mark their official presentation which would typically be at the same time as the Convocation when the ceremonies are held in person.
Produced in a documentary style, these videos provide context to those honoured with the award, and pay homage to highlights in their extraordinary careers and service to Langara College.
