Kelowna: Visionaries share their film making dreams

As residents and visitors alike know, the Okanagan boasts divergent and breathtaking views around every turn.

The valley is camera ready and many have long felt it “ought to be in movies.”

But it takes more than locations to make movie magic.

It takes a talented pool of skilled directors, camera operators, scene builders, video and sound technicians of all kinds. It also takes creative vision, access to financing, and supportive communities.

On Thursday, May 27, at 5 p.m., the ongoing weekly Okanagan Institute Express series at the Bohemian Cafe in Kelowna presents Celluloid Dreams: The Best Seat in the House.

Join in as CBC Radio’s Alya Ramadan hosts a panel featuring Janice Blackie-Goodine, Dean Goodine, Marc Arellano, Graham Cairns and Amar Chebib—all active members of the Okanagan’s burgeoning film industry.
