On winning the Award:
"Having only recently moved back to St. John's, I never had the opportunity to know Michelle Jackson personally. But through friends and fellow filmmakers I have seen the lasting contribution she has made to this community. I see the opportunities created by this award as a reflection of that contribution, and I am honoured to be the first recipient." -Allison WhiteMore Quotables:

“Michelle Jackson. Filmmaker… friend. It’s funny, I don’t have the date circled on my calendar when I first met Michelle, or when we became friends. We just became friends, and although this industry gave us a common ground, there was nothing about Michelle that was common. The reasons for becoming involved in this award are as deeply personal as they are about giving someone new a chance. Michelle would just simply lend a hand if needed; PS Atlantic is just simply lending a hand”.
- Rob Riselli
General Manager – PS Atlantic

“There are many reasons why Stewart McKelvey wanted to support this cause. I don't think any of us knew Michelle personally, but we know that this is not an easy thing to create a film. The 63 minutes you see onscreen are the product of a lot of hard work and the input of many people with many special talents and skills.... and it takes a lot of parts to make the whole. We want to acknowledge that by providing support to this award.”
- Susan Norman,
of the law firm Stewart McKelvey

“Women filmmakers from Newfoundland melt my heart. I would have found a way to be involved had we not been asked.”
