Vancouver Film and Television Forum

The Forum is a four-day event that features panel discussions, master classes, workshops, and meetings geared to the professional development of the Canadian film and television community.

It also serves as a platform for delegates to access domestic and global market leaders, share the expertise of international speakers and meet and foster working relationships with their peers.

Program content includes discussions ranging from the issue of multiplatform production and digital distribution to finding elusive co-production partners.

Each day focuses on a different aspect of the industry, with themes including documentaries, factual programming, films, television and "new filmmakers".

Guest speakers have included Marc Forster, Atom Egoyan, Peter Farrelly, Sarah Polley, Stan Lee, Conrad Hall, Doug Liman, Michael Moore, Alexander Payne, Gus Van Sant and Joel H. Cohen.
