Cultural agency Telefilm Canada is teaming up with its Blighty counterpart, North West Vision, to hold the Canada-U.K. Television Co-production Immersion workshop to help producers on both sides of the Pond improve their skills.
A dozen producers each from Canada and the U.K. will be chosen to participate in the workshop, March 5-7 near Manchester, England.
"Canadian participants will learn how they can work with the U.K. television market, and British producers will get to know a key partner to help them take advantage of the new U.K. rights environment," said Danny Chalifour, Telefilm's director of international operations and development.
