TFS Students Produce National Canadian Film Day Videos: See Them Here

On April 29, 2015 a group of students from the Toronto Film School volunteered with National Canadian Film Day at various events in Toronto.

NationalCanadianFilmDay

 

A number of students went with the Coordinator of the Film Production Diploma program, Christopher Lane, to a screening at the Royal Cinema of a new HD version of Atom Egoyan’s CALENDAR with the director in attendance.

The students shot and produced this video of the event on behalf of REEL CANADA, the organizer of National Canadian Film Day.

 

Toronto Film School students also volunteered at the CBC building in downtown Toronto for a special screening of DR. CABBIE (2014). DR. CABBIE star Vinay Virmani was in attendance and participated in a question and answer after the screening. Toronto Film School volunteers shot and produced this video from that event for REEL CANADA.

 

Congratulations to REEL CANADA on hosting fantastic events and congratulations to the Toronto Film School students who were involved in creating these wonderful videos of the events.
