Camosun College is hoping to get the cameras rolling and tap into one of B.C.’s billion-dollar industries, as

THE 'SCRAPPY' ROUTE FOR FIRST-TIME CANADIAN FILMMAKERS TO LAND A TIFF PREMIERE
The journey from idea to debut involves years of unpaid work, chasing after funding. Canadian filmmakers can spend years on journeys as fraught with drama and risk as the ones
they're telling on screen, trying to navigate the world of Canadian film financing as first-time feature directors and producers.

HOLLYWOOD’S FILM ACADEMY HAS GONE GLOBAL. CAN ITS REVENUE DO THE
SAME?
Twenty-five percent of the Academy’s membership now comes from outside the U.S. Fully half of the latest group of new members are deemed international. Another possible future is coming into view, one that may not find the Oscar show with a bigger presence but might re-balance the Academy’s financial underpinnings.

OH GOODY, IT’S ANOTHER RADICAL-PHYSICAL-TRANSFORMATION PERFORMANCE
It’s clear that Darren Aronofsky, Brendan Fraser, and the A24 publicity team are taking pains to
show how The Whale will not reduce this character to the spectacle of his size, and yet it’s still being framed as an object of fascination. Furthermore, the character is queer and mourning the loss of his male soulmate, a Mormon named Alan. That’s a whole other representational quagmire.

ACTIONING IN ACTING: A FULL GUIDE TO THE TECHNIQUE
As musicians fine-tune their instruments, actors do the same with the tools of their craft. Step-by-step scene study is part of that education, and it includes identifying objectives, marking beats, and finding ways to bring
subtext to the forefront. This is where actioning comes into play.

HOW TO TEACH YOURSELF A DIALECT, ACCORDING TO A VOICE COACH
Learning a believable dialect as a “do it yourself” project can be daunting. Knowing what to listen for, how to break it down, and how to practice, and then turning your work into something that will convince a native speaker is
not easy to do—at least without a little guidance.
