Vancouver film festival


Vancouver International Film Festival


I arrived in Canada over half way through the festival. I found out about it online and saw they were looking for volunteers to help with the festival. I thought it would be a good little experience for when I first arrive in Canada.

As I enjoy film very much and enjoy all sorts of film from big hollywood blockbusters to smaller indie films, I thought this would be a good oppotunity to meet fellow film lovers and also learn more about Vancouver. 

As I arrived so late into the festival I did not get a chance to see any films but I do have recommendations from some off the other volunteers on what to check out which I will do so.

Most of my time working there I worked in an outside tent where festival passholders and volunteers would collect tickets for what films they wanted to see. It was a nice job which gave me the oppotunity to talk to some off the volunteers and moviegoers.

The white tent is where I was mainly based.
