Opportunities for Deaf and Disabled Filmmakers. Deadline is fast approaching so please check it out and share.

***UPDATE: The deadline for AccessCBC has been extended to January 31st at 11:59pm Pacific time!***

Happy New Year, everyone - we’ve got some very exciting news to share!

We are thrilled to announce AccessCBC, a national CBC initiative for Deaf and disabled creators developed in partnership with ReelAbilities Film Festival Toronto that will provide training, mentorship, and, on select projects, financing support to create scripted and documentary screen-based content.

AccessCBC consists of two streams:

SCRIPTED (Drama and Comedy): a pitch development program that will invite up to 10 Deaf and disabled creators to participate in multiple development workshops for drama or comedy series. Program participants will be paid for their involvement in the program and their creation of a pitch package.

SHORT DOCUMENTARY STREAM: a development program that includes a paid development phase and mentorship for up to 10 selected filmmakers. At the end of an approximate eight-week development cycle, one short doc will be selected for production.

For more information on the individual programs, eligibility, and submission requirements, check out: reelabilities.org/toronto/accesscbc

SUBMISSION DEADLINE FOR BOTH STREAMS: January 26, 2022.

We miss you Dave! He was so humble and kind, even though he was such a big presence in the film community. My life was touched by him too. He always made time to talk about my filmmaking.

On Monday, July 26th we tragically lost our beloved coworker, mentor and friend Dave Barber. Dave passed away peacefully and surrounded by his family. Those of you who had the privilege of knowing him know what a gentle, kind, curious, …

Dancers and Dance Instructors from coast to coast to coast:

We need your voices! (In written format from the comfort and safety of home.)

We are looking for people to complete a short survey via computer about why you love dance.

Would you be willing to add your virtual voice?

Send me your email by the end of Friday (tomorrow) and I will send you the information. Take a look and if you’re willing, return within a week. From beginning to end, it will take about 15 minutes. That simple!

As It Happened Productions (AIHP) is completing a portion of an excellent project (with thanks to coordinated by ) exploring best practices when teaching dance within the Deaf community.

For this part of the project, we want to hear from all backgrounds, styles and levels!



Once this project is complete at the end of the month, AIHP will be hanging up our gear and hopefully going on CERB. We will still be available by email. Stay in touch stay safe.
