Testimonials

CineFocus Canada spent over a year travelling to document me at tribute events, on a two week concert tour in Western Canada, at art gallery openings, teaching on reserves, and at my home in Hawaii and on the Piapot Reserve with my family. Whether Joan was backstage or in my family’s kitchen, as the director, she handled each situation with the utmost respect, sensitivity, and professionalism.

I found the CineFocus Canada team to be sensitive and open to feedback. They were pioneering a new funding model that required not only several broadcast partners, but also financing from private and public funders. They were also managing a large team of individuals. Nevertheless, they were able to stick to their budget and deliver on-time twelve half hour television programmes, 45 short video profiles, a robust web platform and a stand-alone app, and promote them widely through their publicity and community outreach team.
