  • Speech by Carolle Brabant, Quebec MBA
    QUEBEC MBA ASSOCIATION APRIL 25, 2012 The Canadian audiovisual industry: We mean business Speech delivered by Carolle Brabant, C.P.A., C.A., MBA Executive Director, Telefilm Canada I’d like to thank you for being here today as well as thank the Quebec MBA Association for making culture a part of these lunch-time talks. As an MBA graduate myself, I’m delighted to be able to use this forum to speak to you about a passionate and important industry for the economic and cultural future of Canada: the audiovisual industry. I decided to join this industry over 21 years ago and I’ve never regretted it. It has let me combine my passion for business with my passion for the arts. Every day, I get to work with inspirational, dynamic people who motivate me. 1/24 There’s been much talk of culture in the media these past few weeks as a result of the federal government’s recent budget cuts. But there’s also been much talk about the success garnered by Canadian productions. One need only think of the tremendous box office success enjoyed by Starbuck. It was announced this week that DreamWorks has acquired the remake rights and that Ken Scott would be the director. Then, of course, there’s Monsieur Lazhar, which made it all the way to the Oscars! The Canadian audiovisual industry is a vibrant, active industry that touches us every day through our television screens, at the movies, and increasingly on our computers and phones. It is an industry deserving of our attention, notably because of its contribution to the culture and economy of our country.

  • CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and Counting…
    5 JAN 18 1 FEB 18 1 | 5 JAN 18 - 1 FEB 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and counting… As you’ll spot deep within this programme (and hinted at on the front cover) January 2018 sees the start of a series of films that lead up to celebrations in October marking the 40th birthday of Filmhouse as a public cinema on Lothian Road. We’ve chosen to screen a film from every year we’ve been bringing the very best cinema to the good people of Edinburgh, and while it is tremendous fun looking back through the history of what has shown here, it was quite an undertaking going through all the old programmes and choosing what to show, and a bit of a personal journey for me as one who started coming here as a customer in the mid-80s (I know, I must have started very young...). At that time, I’d no idea that Filmhouse had only been in existence for less than 10 years – it seemed like such an established, essential institution and impossible to imagine it not existing in a city such as Edinburgh. My only hope is that the cinema is as important today as I felt it was then, and that the giants on whose shoulders we currently stand feel we’re worthy of their legacy. I hope you can join us for at least some of the screenings on this trip down memory lane... And now, back to the now.
