The Canadian Independent Film & Video Fund has awarded $1.5 million to 56 Canadian film and video productions. A third of those received the largest grants – amounts ranging from $39,000 to $50,000.
Despite a major funding cut, the Bell Broadcast and New Media Fund spent more money last year, investing $6.6 million in the production and development of 74 TV projects, all with strong interactive elements, according to its recently released annual report.
