One week left to register for Multplatform, Multi-success workshop


MONTREAL – There is just over one week left to register for Telefilm Canada’s professional development initiative ‘Multiplatform, Multi-success!’.

Registration closes on January 29 for the three-day workshops which promise to “explore the creation and exploitation of content in a multiplatform environment.” French-speaking creators living in Canada, outside of Quebec, can attend sessions from February 24-26, and sessions fro English-speaking creators in Quebec are March 9-11, all in Montreal.

Aimed at producers, directors and writers of feature films, television, or new media programs, the workshops will study alternate content platforms such as Web 2.0 and social networks, online video distribution and complementary platforms such as mobile.

The workshops are part of the Official Languages Activities program which offers events through Telefilm intended to facilitate relationships between industry decision makers and content creators working in official language communities in minority situations. In addition, the program aims to expand the pool of creators from Francophone communities outside of Quebec, and Anglophone communities within Quebec.
