Picture Park, and The Crossing Studios.

$3.8 billion in 2017, making Vancouver the 3rd largest production centre in North

The industry has a strong balance of international and domestic production activity,
with foreign productions accounting for three-quarters of total production dollars

partners on co –productions with the mandate to make quality, commercially viable
feature lms and TV shows for a global marketplace.
