Participants wanted for WIFT convergent media program


TORONTO – Women in Film and Television in Toronto (WIFT-T) is accepting registrants for this year’s convergent media program, which begins on October 8, 2009.

The program is designed to provide members of the screen-based industry with an overview of the convergent media landscape, including the trends, the opportunities, and the impact on the industry.

Through eight in-depth sessions held Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 PM, participants will learn how to plan and implement cross-platform projects while remaining focused on how to monetize and manage new content. Program participants also work in groups to develop cross-platform content ideas from concept to pitch.

Fees are $600 (+ GST) for WIFT-T members and $750 (+ GST) for non-members.
