Vancouver: The Best Place On Earth (for Film Students)

Thoughts on the Vancouver Film Industry and Some Advice for Beginners
I’m feeling the need today to express my love for my hometown. I know so many people who have negative feelings toward their own hometowns for one reason or another (or more), but as for myself? Vancouver has really been a great place for me, and I’m now going to explain why.

I mean the city that hosted the 2010 Winter Olympics; the city with a [mostly] cool Skytrain system (it’s a train! in the sky! like the Disney monorail but for mass-transit!); the city nestled between the Salish Sea (formerly Georgia Strait) and the tall coastal mountains; the city at the mouth of the mighty Fraser River; the city that’s home to beautiful Stanley Park with its towering trees; the city that is - yeah, I suppose you get the point now.
