Vancouver Island South Film<br />

& Media Commission<br />

WESTERN FILMMAKER FALL & WINTER <strong><strong>20</strong>19</strong> - <strong>20</strong><br />

The Vancouver Island South Film & Media Commission has<br />

been the go-to agency for film productions for Southern Vancouver<br />

Island since 1996. Located approximately <strong>20</strong> minutes<br />

by air from Vancouver and Seattle. Greater Victoria and the<br />

South Island boast the mildest climate in Canada with 30%<br />

less rain than Vancouver. Couple that with some of the most<br />

dramatic locations in the province and you have an unrivalled<br />

film production region.<br />

Greater Victoria and the South Island’s mix of stunning<br />

wilderness, ocean vistas, quaint historic architecture and<br />

experienced crews have attracted both big and small budget<br />

productions. Big features like Five Easy Pieces, Glitterdome,<br />

Little Women and X-Men as well as hundreds of movies for<br />

television, commercials and documentaries have found the<br />

region to be both affordable and accommodating.<br />

The VISFMC is a certified member of AFCI and is available to<br />

offer you free location scouting services and on the ground<br />

assistance on your next project. We are ready to help you<br />

locate crew and put you in touch with local suppliers. The<br />

Greater Victoria and South Island offers great value with<br />

terrific tax incentives and a film friendly attitude.<br />

For more information please give us a call or visit our website.<br />

We hope to see you soon!<br />
