BRINGING
HOLLYWOOD
TO THE NORTH
All Together While Apart
It has long been recognized that Canada is rich in talent but lack the same opportunities as our American neighbors in the film industry. The Movie Expo exists to connect Canadian filmmaking talent to the world stage. We are bringing the network, knowledge, prospective collaborations up to Canada. By housing them all under one roof in a condensed intensive 2 day interactive showcase in Toronto.
CONNECTING AROUND THE WORLD
Connecting Everyone Across The Globe. Bringing Opportunities To You
CANADIAN MARKET
Often referred to as the “Hollywood North” Canada thrives as a beloved location for productions of all sorts. Canadian production budgets topping $3.23 billion Canadian dollars in 2018/2019 season, the Canadian industry continues to grow.
AMERICAN MARKET
Hollywood has dominated the feature film production for the past 70 decades, and is recognized as the world’s most prestigious film industry. It is time to bring our neighbors up north to share industry insights and build relationships
CHINESE MARKET
The Asian film industry is becoming the largest feature film production market globally, and the Chinese investments dominate the industry. We are connecting Canadians with key Chinese investors in the industry
