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.

But Susan Gabori, who went to MIP-TV wearing a sellers blue badge, quickly learned the ropes and joined in the television-film market which grossed $30 million. by susan gabori I personally had never heard of MIP-TV till this year, even though I have been involved in the making of film and television programs on a number of levels. I am very familiar with the agony of choosing the right angle. | have sat through excrutiating decisions at the fine cut stage, trying to hone down the seconds to fit the slots. But I have seldom concerned myself with what happens to the film after the first good answer print. I am usually too busy going on to the next project. Therefore, when a friend, Max Engel, of Media Lab TV, a Canadian distribution company, asked me to help him out at MIP, I was presented with a rare opportunity to catch a glimpse of the other side of this business, the side that most of us “‘creative” people view as crass commercialism. Susan Gabori is a filmmaker and writer now living in Toronto. She has studied film in London, England and has worked at the National Film Board as a free-lance cameraperson. She | presently writing a science-fiction book. Rik Cinema Canada /29
