Post Banff Catch up

I remember my fist time at the Banff Media Festival in 2009. It was an honour to be selected for a program to attend for my first time. At this past edition, 2025, I was selected for two opportunities, and while I wanted to wear all three lanyards that announced my chosen status, I had to elect one and I decided on the special blue lanyard that announced I was part of the Banff Spark Producers Edition, sponsored by Paramount+.

This kind of curated experience meant that I could see my fellow cohort members and wave with a smile. We were 25 producers that knew what it took for us to attend this hustle and bustle of a conference in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Surrounded by crisp, mountain air. It was easy to suggest meetings on the verandah outside kissed by the sun.

The Banff Spark and the Diversity of Voices experience means that we are surrounded by a like-minded cohort. We see each other and gravitated towards a shared experience. In this business, it’s so easy to be alone that having smiling faces to wave to as you run from one meeting to another is a must.

Anyone who wants to ask me about these two programs, feel free to reach out. When the applications come around again, I’m happy to discuss what it means to be sponsored by both. Do they help? I have to say a resounding yes, having been supported multiple times to attend. It’s a camaraderie that is beyond priceless.

Hello (Again) – Diversity in Cannes Short Film Showcase

We’re so excited about Hello (Again)’s European Premiere at the 2023 Diversity in Cannes Short Film Showcase!  All good things come to those who wait.  Last year we had been selected to go but we couldn’t attend (attendance is important to this showcase).  This year we submitted again and were selected AND we are already going to be at the Marché du Film at the Cannes International Film Festival (thanks Canada Media Fund!).  So now with the stars aligned, I hope all my peeps who are going to be in Cannes join us at the showcase – May 22, 2023 at the Hotel Gray d’Albion – just steps away from the Palais. Raising a glass of champagne (when in Cannes) to the European Premiere of Hello (Again)!


We’re looking to be able to find a home so that all my international friends can watch our short form series.


Until then, you can catch the trailer on You Tube here: https://youtu.be/iR2zK-V-Qw0

Happy Asian Heritage month!

EAVE certified!

Last week we finished the EAVE On Demand Access Program, presented by NSI and CMF. It was a mindblowing experience on all fronts. 3 workshops throughout the year so that we as Producers and Executive Producers can further our companies and our projects to be marketplace ready. Working with mentors who can empathize with our paths and journeys was a tremendous experience. If you’re looking to take part in the next cohort, send me an email to learn more. I highly recommend this program for all Producers looking to take their projects and production companies to the next level.

Excited for Day 2 of EAVE On Demand

If you’re all wondering where I am today, it’s Edmonton, Alberta! I’m attending in person workshops – 3rd of 3 workshops. EAVE On Demand – Presented by the National Screen Institute Canada (NSI) with the support of Canadian Media Fund (CMF). This has been a mind-blowing experience of Producing workshops. If anyone is thinking of applying for next year, I’d love to chat with you. It’s definitely worth the investment of time.
