Canadian-Brazilian Film Initiative
by Andre Soares
Via the Canadian Press: "Canada’s National Film Board is working with both the government and private sector in Brazil on a series of initiatives, including the advancement of digital cinema, documentary co-productions and the training of promising young filmmakers.
"In an agreement signed Thursday, NFB chairman Jacques Bensimon said the board and Brazil’s Culture Ministry would collaborate on several fronts. They involve exploring co-distribution and co-production opportunities including sharing $50,000 in funding on a series of documentary and animation projects and allowing emerging Brazilian animators to train at the NFB’s Montreal animation studio."
