Toronto Film Seminar
The TORONTO FILM SEMINAR brings together scholars of cinema and media in Toronto and Southern Ontario for talks, workshops, and other events. All seminars are Friday afternoons at the TIFF Bell Lightbox Learning Studios.
Thanks to the support of TIFF's Higher Learning programme, we began the Seminar in September with a fantastic event for graduate students from all Toronto area universities.
The goals of the Seminar are:
- to encourage intellectual and collegial discussion among the increasing number of Cinema and Media Studies scholars in the region,
- to encourage in-depth scholarly discussion and critical debate,
- to showcase diverse research methodologies and research fields that address a wide range of cinematic technologies (film, television, video, new media, and other forms of moving image and sound screens)
- to model collegial and professional academic discourse for the many graduate students entering the field.
