The Toronto Film School is pleased to present the 1st annual Festival of Films! On August 29th TFS students, faculty, family and friends will enjoy the talents of our student body at the Cineplex Odeon Theatres. A list of superb short films, music videos, PSA/Commercials and Documentaries have been selected to show at two screenings throughout the day, and will be judged by a panel of judges of faculty and industry professionals. An awards ceremony will take place that night and give honours to the works that have demonstrated the most creativity and technical skill, two integral components of the programs we offer at TFS. Tickets for the screenings and the awards ceremony are free and still available. We invite you to RSVP today, and invite any movie lover or cinephile you know. It is an event sure to delight, and make you proud of the high quality work our students create.
