Agreements with recognized film schools help ACTRA Toronto members to bring the benefit of their experience and training to the work of emerging filmmakers and give students the chance to work with a professional cast.

ACTRA Toronto currently requires all productions to include COVID-19 testing plans in their safety protocols.

As a Student Producer, you also have to ensure the safety of all Performers on set. Any set that has ACTRA Members must submit a COVID-19 safety protocol document with testing plans for review when they submit their Student Film registration form.

Please review the Student Producers Info Sheet and Additional Information Sheet. For more information and/or Student Film submissions please email: studentfilm@actratoronto.com
