Winning Mechanics of Interprovincial Production | 

Collaboration or Co-Production?

Presented by

Description

In the production process, identifying and involving private or public partners is essential to the success of a project. However, financing and regulations can be an issue that production companies face in the case of projects that involve multiple provinces. The way these issues are handled will help determine the type of producing relationship between the parties: if it will be an interprovincial collaboration or a co-production. This panel, presented by Telefilm Canada, will explore case studies to identify winning trends in interprovincial production.
