How you can support the VSFF
The Vancouver Short Film Festival would not be possible without the support of sponsors. Your contributions allow us to continue raising awareness for creative pioneers in the BC film, video and new media industries.
Sponsors can assist the festival in various ways:
- Cash
- Media Advertising or other forms of marketing
- Prize donation
- Other in-kind services
In exchange for your support, you will be given the opportunity to reach thousands of filmmakers, students, industry representatives, media, and moviegoers throughout the province, while showing your commitment to the BC arts community.
We hope that you will consider partnering with the Vancouver Short Film Festival: the official short film festival of the Canadian West Coast.
