Part 06 – Cornerstones

Filmmaking can be a very difficult process that requires many moving parts and the funding to ensure the production can happen. There are different types of funding and support available for filmmakers in Alberta, ranging from national associations down to localized entities that work hard to allow the industry to continue progressing.

In Part 6, Liam and Ingrid speak to members of just a few of the institutions that have come together to help build the industry up to its current state. They are joined by Alex Mitchell (CSIF; Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers), Scott Lang (Calgary Cinematheque), and Vicki Van Chau (AMAAS; Alberta Media Arts Alliance Society) who all discuss how their organizations play important roles in the development of filmmaking in the province.
