Cinema Canada

Earlier Title: Canadian Cinematography (1961-67)

Cinema Canada (1967-89) was the primary trade journal for film and television production in Canada. The magazine originated as Canadian Cinematography (1961-67), published by the Canadian Society of Cinematographers, but was renamed to appeal to a wider readership and to recognize a degree of maturity of the national film production industry. Cinema Canada hosted a new slate of stridently nationalist film critics, scholars and writers. The magazine’s emergence coincided with a threshold, of sorts, when a national cinema became recognizable in character as having an independence from Hollywood genres, even if output remained relatively small in quantity. The publication’s archives are housed at the Toronto International Film Festival’s Film Reference Library.

THE FIL GENTS The Canadian Filmmakers’ Distribution Centre was established five years ago to provide a co-operative distribution outlet for independent filmmakers. From a collection of 17 prints in our first year we have grown to a library of over 400 films deposited by about 150 filmmakers from Canada, the United States and overseas. Next to the National Film Board we are the largest distribution outlet for Canadian films. Distribution is on a non-exclusive, profit sharing basis, and we encourage filmmakers to seek out other non-exclusive distributors. Filmmakers set their own fees; in order to remain competitive with commercial distributors we ask that they use a scale of a dollar a minute for rental and 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 the print cost for sales. Prints are deposited with us and remain the property of the filmmaker. You may withdraw the prints at any time, but we ask that you keep any previously agreed booking. We try to act as an information resource for Canadian films. |f there is anything we can provide you, get in touch.
