Thanks, also, to our Scripted Series Lab participants, Petie Chalifoux, Kat Sieniuc, Todd Ireland, Corey Liu, and Mike Orlando for all their hard work. We couldn’t have done it without the support of the CMPA, the WGC, and Creative BC.

Thank you to all the local producers, showrunners, filmmakers and screenwriters who brought your energy, your ideas, and your enthusiasm. If you weren’t able to attend this year, we hope you’ll join us next year. We’re already thinking of ways to make year two bigger and better.
