Motion Picture Services
WELCOME TO THE PROVINCE'S FILM COMMISSION!
The BC Film Commissioner and Production Services Team are committed to supporting, promoting and sustaining the success of BC's motion picture industry.
All services are provided free of charge for the benefit of both the industry and the communities in which it works. We help ensure that productions enjoy smooth and efficient operations wherever they shoot, whether an urban or wilderness location.
