Portrait de John Hodgins
I have been the Technical Director for IsumaTV since our launch in 2008. I've managed the growth of the site from a simple video blog to an interactive social networking and OTT VOD platform, as well as acting as lead developer for a variety of Isuma's digital projects. I've travelled extensively in the Canadian Arctic managing installation of IsumaTV MediaPlayers in Igloolik, Pangnirtuq and Iqaluit. More recently, I developed the technology and helped launch Uvagut TV, Canada's first national Inuktut television channel.See more

    À la suite de conflits entre les Blancs, les Autochtones et les Inuits, des familles d’Inuits ont fui les terres pour aller se réfugier sur des archipels, dont les îles Belcher. Sur ces îles, on ne retrouvait pas de caribou, mais plutôt toute une faune d’oiseaux.… En savoir plus
