Cinema in Brief: Toronto Short Film Project

A recent conversation I had reminded me of one thing that I may have forgotten in the past little while: film festivals are integral to increasing the exposure of short film in Canada, but equally important are the structures in place that make creating a short film possible. In that spirit, this month I went looking for some independent filmmakers to ask them about the challenges in crafting their films — a step that comes much before deciding how to get people to watch their creation.
