{B.C,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler down jackets[/url].'s film and TV spending up despite industry struggles}
Thousands of people involved in B.C.'s film industry gathered in January at a town hall meeting aimed at reversing the outflow of productions to other regions|Bob MackinBy Jenny WaglerThu Mar 14, 2013 11:13am PSTDespite dark warnings from B.C.'s film and TV sector,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler down jackets[/url], B.C.'s film and production spend edged up 2.3% to $1.216 billion last year."The production numbers for film and TV are up over 2011 – perhaps a little bit of a surprise to some folks,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]discount moncler jackets[/url]," Culture Minister Bill Bennett said yesterday in announcing the stats.Since early this year,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]discount moncler jackets[/url], B.C.'s service film industry, led by initiatives such as #SaveBCFilm, has been warning that the province's film incentives are no longer sufficient to attract Hollywood interest, and the accompanying spending and jobs.The just-released production spending statistics do track that approximately 25% drop in foreign feature film production, which fell to $324 million in 2012 from $430 million in 2011.However, those losses have been offset by a significant rebound in B.C.'s indigenous production, led by a nearly 70% boost in domestic TV series spending.Liz Shorten, spokeswoman for the B.C. branch of the Canadian Media Production Association, recently told Business in Vancouver that a windfall of Canadian content dollars coming out of 2010 acquisition deals by BCE Inc. (TSX:BCE) and Shaw Communications Inc.'s (TSX:SJR.B) is helping boost domestic film activity.B.C.'s 2012 total film spend even holds up reasonably well compared with Ontario's just-released 2012 production spending numbers – which,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler on sale[/url], while billed as the "strongest year ever for Ontario's film and television industry," have climbed less than 1% over 2011 levels.However, Paul Klassen, business representative for the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) local 891, which represents approximately 5,000 film industry workers in B.C. and the Yukon,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler on sale[/url], said B.C.'s production numbers don't change the industry's distress.He said his members' concerns aren't about a drop in activity from 2011 – but from the more flush 2009. He said the industry has been in a three-year slump."That's really what the outcry is from the industry."Klassen added that, headed into 2013,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler outlet[/url], his union's payroll numbers are well below early 2012 levels."I've seen some [payroll] numbers that show we're down by 33% or 35% from where we were at in 2012 and 2011," he said.Bennett told Business in Vancouver that, for now, the B.C. government isn't about to roll out any new film incentives for B.C.'s film industry. He also said the government isn't planning to give the film industry a PST exemption.But Bennett added that he's heard the industry's concerns that,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler outlet[/url], despite the 2012 figures,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler sale[/url], activity levels are slumping heading into 2013. He said he'll be watching for first-quarter 2013 production spending levels to see if they support these concerns."I think we have to go probably another couple of months before we know there's an on-going and lasting [downward] trend."jwagler@biv.com@jennywaglerTags: Bill Bennett,[url=http://www.moncler-sale.org]moncler sale[/url], television, Ontario, BCE Inc., Shaw Communications Inc., film
