The story for 2010 is clear. We’re delighted to have construction completed on TIFF Bell Lightbox, and be able to take our place among the great cultural landmarks of our community.

We’ve had a lot of help along the way. Let me take this opportunity to thank our many supporters in both the public and private sectors. This truly feels like a community effort.

This year we welcomed John Tory as Chair, TIFF Bell Lightbox Campaign, and we are grateful to him and our Campaign Committee for their hard work and success. By the end of 2010, we had raised over 90% of our fundraising goal.

In the spring, we completed a study that demonstrated TIFF had an economic impact on our community of $170.4 million, a figure estimated to grow to $200 million after the opening of TIFF Bell Lightbox. The report also found TIFF provided 2,300 full-time jobs in 2008-2009, the period studied, and returned $60 million in tax revenue.

The effect on the Canadian film industry was particularly encouraging: business conducted at the Toronto International Film Festival® was valued at $54.1 million. And the wider community was shown to realize $27 million in benefits from visitors to the Festival.

Those numbers confirm the value of our organization goes far beyond our focus of being a vibrant cultural leader in our city – a position we look forward to holding for many years to come.

PAUL ATKINSON, Chair, Board of Directors, TIFF

After a decade of talking, planning and building, we’re finally home.

I’ve had many moving experiences in cinemas over the years. But the opening of TIFF Bell Lightbox on September 12 of this year was the most profound. My very deep, personal thanks go out to everyone who has been involved in this project over the last decade.

In a whirlwind year, here’s what stands out for me:

An astonishing staff with the planning skills, patience and determination to cope with a move of our entire organization, including offices and a library, at our busiest time of year.

Challenging audiences who recognize, appreciate and demand the outstanding quality and breadth of programming that we’re now able to provide them with every day of the year.

Visionary government and corporate leaders who continued to invest in our project despite economic difficulties.

Marvellous filmmakers who continue to surprise, move and entertain us with stories and characters we can’t forget.

A perennial theme for great films is the coming of age story. The opening of TIFF Bell Lightbox feels like just such a moment for TIFF. It marks the maturing of our organization, and I would argue also reflects the maturing of our city.

That maturity means we now have the confidence to take our place as a global cultural leader.

But it doesn’t mean that we lose our openness and curiosity about the world.

It does mean that we’re more passionate than ever.

TIFF began 35 years ago as a small film festival. Since then, we’ve grown a little.

We added a children’s festival and year-round programming through TIFF Cinematheque. We integrated the Film Reference Library and built Film Circuit, bringing films to under-served communities. And we kept on growing.

Our innovative staff kept coming up with new initiatives. New audience members kept coming and adding new events to their schedules.

More and more, the only thing that limited us was our lack of a year-round, permanent home. And so a dream began.

Ten years ago, we asked if anyone might be interested in partnering with us to build that dream, and there was more interest than we dared to hope.

We found the perfect team to create the perfect home. At every step, more supporters joined us with major gifts and commitments.

This year we opened the doors on our new and magnificent TIFF Bell Lightbox.

We celebrated with a block party attended by 15,000 people. Enthusiasm for the building was clear from that first day. With 153,000 square feet over five floors and 1,300 cinema seats, our imaginations shouldn’t be limited by space for quite a while.

The eager, early buzz has continued. Round-the-clock screenings during the Festival were followed by robust TIFF Cinematheque screenings, diverse new releases and exceptionally popular free and series programming. And screenings are just the beginning: in our first few months, we presented workshops, lectures and the major exhibitions Essential Cinema and Tim Burton, and… well, read on to hear what we’ve been up to in the last year.

With 153,000 square feet over !ve "oors and 1,300 cinema seats, our imaginations shouldn’t be limited by space for quite a while.

2001 TIFF puts out a call for expressions of interest from developers interested in partnering on building a new TIFF home. Land was also sought. Nineteen responses were received.

2002 TIFF holds discussions with the Reitman family – acclaimed filmmaker Ivan Reitman and sisters Agi Mandel and Susan Michaels – and The Daniels Corporation, who together now form the King and John Festival Corporation.

2003 TIFF announces the project and launches a $196-million capital campaign. Toronto architecture firm KPMB is named as building designers.

2005 The Ontario government pledges $25 million towards the project (and more is announced later). The Canadian government also announces $25 million in funding. Bell comes on board as Founding Sponsor.

2007 APRIL 10 Groundbreaking. Construction begins.

2008 RBC joins the project as Major Sponsor.

2009 David Pecaut appointed Chair of TIFF Bell Lightbox Campaign. The Ontario government announces an additional $10 million towards construction. By December, 82% of funds have been raised.

SEPT. 8 Reitman Square is named in honour of Leslie and Clara Reitman.

SEPT. 12 Official opening and ribbon cutting of TIFF Bell Lightbox with free block party.

First, let’s look back on how we got to Reitman Square:

TIFF Bell Lightbox is the place… For watching films you won’t see anywhere else

For meeting friends for dinner

For debating context and subtext

For listening to inspiring artists

For learning more about the world

For the love of film

“ I !nd the speaking engagements the most exciting. Paul Haggis, in particular, was inspirational.” – DORIS

“ I lo#e the excitement of the big galas.” – JOHN

TIFF DONORSDORIS CHAN & JOHN WHITCHER

“Our anniversary was coming up and I really wanted a special way to mark our 20 years together. John and I met in 1989 on a round-the-world bus trip. He’s Australian and was working in London directing for the BBC and Central Television. I was a Canadian working in finance in New York. When I transferred back to Toronto, John visited me and was amazed by the opportunities available in ‘Hollywood North.’ He realized he could make a living and a life here instead of going back to Australia.

“Our gift honours our relationship, our community, the industry that embraced John, and an organization that has brought us both an enormous amount of enjoyment. We both believe that TIFF Bell Lightbox has reignited the cultural life of our city.

“We have two sons, Ryan, 11, and Ethan, 7, and from the time TIFF Bell Lightbox opened, we found it to be an incredible place for families. We couldn’t get over the great weekend workshops for children. Many were free and the price for others was very reasonable. As parents, we could sit in on the workshop or relax in one of the restaurants inside the building. We could even meet friends for brunch!”

Favourite thing about TIFF Bell Lightbox:

DORIS – “I love the openness of the architecture. Just stepping inside feels like going on vacation.”

JOHN " “I love the location, in the heart of downtown and close to where much of the local industry is based. We both love the integration of the building with cinemas, restaurants, galleries and library together. And we really do love the rooftop space. The view of King St. and downtown is spectacular.”

The romantic sweep of the staircase on TIFF Bell Lightbox’s breathtaking Reach for the Top Rooftop is a fitting backdrop to the story of donors Doris Chan and John Whitcher. Doris is VP, Senior Portfolio Manager at TD Canada Trust and John is a busy drama-documentary editor, most recently of Storming Juno for History TV.

Cinemas near our King and John location were secured to provide additional venues for public and industry screenings. The electricity that fills Toronto during the Festival as thousands fill theatres, gather around red carpets and discuss their favourite screenings late into the night successfully moved south to surround our new home.

The Festival continues to show the best of international and Canadian cinema, and act as an important launch pad for independent film. This is demonstrated by the many films premiering at the Festival that go on to win international awards. The celebrated UK/Australia production The King’s Speech is an example; it won its first award at the Festival with the Cadillac People’s Choice Award and went on to win Best Picture, along with other Oscars®. All of the Academy Award® nominees for Best Foreign Language Film screened at the Festival, including Canadian contender Incendies. This Denis Villeneuve-directed film also won the City of Toronto Award for Best Canadian Feature Film. Another major prize, the SKYY Vodka Award for Best Canadian First Feature Film, went to The High Cost of Living by director Deborah Chow.

Beyond the Festival, the popular Canada’s Top Ten series celebrates the best Canadian shorts and feature films of the previous year. In January 2011, the programme sold out five of its screenings, and overall ticket sales held steady compared to the year before. Many of the screenings were presented by filmmakers, including: Denis Villeneuve with Incendies, Ingrid Veninger with MODRA and Denis Côté with Curling. The series later travelled to Pacific Cinémathèque in Vancouver and the Canadian Film Institute in Ottawa.

TIFF partnered with the Film School Consortium to present the seventh annual Student Film Showcase in May. Eleven films were screened at AMC Yonge & Dundas theatre to a record crowd of 450 people, followed by an awards ceremony and a well-received Meet the Directors panel discussion with Clement Virgo, Larry Jacob and Peter Wellington.

From the beginning, TIFF has been about celebrating the power and diversity of films and the creativity of the people who make them. We did this first with the Festival, which in 2010 marked its 35th year. Ten years ago, we decided that our homegrown cinematic excellence deserved additional attention, and we began Canada’s Top Ten. We also expanded our reach to acknowledge the next generation of great filmmakers with the Student Film Showcase.

The 2010 Festival was marked by strong programming including excellent Canadian entries: Xavier Dolan’s Heartbeats, Mike Goldbach’s Daydream Nation and the Festival Opening Night Gala, Score: The Hockey Musical. Our free programming, TIFF for Free, screened films that premiered at the Festival over the previous 35 years.

While it was an obvious choice to open TIFF Bell Lightbox during the Festival, there was considerable risk of finding ourselves without enough resources. But thanks to the hard work of staff and volunteers, the simultaneous launch was very successful.

WRITER, PRODUCER,

DIRECTORINGRID VENINGER

MODRA

Festival selection 2010 Canada’s Top Ten selection 2010

“Without TIFF, nobody would know about MODRA. Before the Festival, it was a little micro-budget feature without a distributor, and a platform like the Festival was crucial for it. My mom wore her 1990 Festival of Festivals T-shirt as a lucky charm for nearly a week and we were thrilled to be accepted. Then the real work began.

“We invited relatives from Slovakia who were also in the cast to come for the world premiere and help with promotion. They happily wore their Slovak folk costumes and handed out flyers in the lineups, singing traditional songs every day of the Festival. All our shows sold out. It was wonderful to connect with the audiences and hear their responses. When we had our theatrical release several months later, many people attending said they ‘heard about it at the Festival.’

“Because of the Festival, we secured a distributor, Mongrel Media, my first choice for the film. The icing on the cake was to be selected as one of Canada’s Top Ten. That really gave our little film credibility. There it was on a list with a bunch of filmmakers everyone had heard of. Even my teenage daughter, who stars in MODRA, was impressed: ‘Mom, you’re a real filmmaker now!’

Favourite thing about TIFF Bell Lightbox: “Everything. It’s inspiring to be there. The cinemas are fantastic and it’s terrific for film-makers in the city to finally have a base. It feels like an event place, where something exciting is going to happen. We went the other night with our two teenagers, and we had a great time together, watching and discussing the film. The experience became my son’s Facebook status as soon as he got home.”

# BEST FESTIVAL MOMENT:

“ I lo#e the early morning screenings. $ese bring out the die-hard !lm people. I remember seeing Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon at 9am. $e energy in the lobby as we all spilled out was incredible. We’d all shared this amazing experience, and it wasn’t even noon yet.”

DIRECTORTOM HOOPER

The King’s Speech

Winner, Cadillac People’s Choice Award

Festival 2010

“Holding the world premiere of The King’s Speech at Roy Thomson Hall was such a privilege. The Toronto audience is such a great audience to launch a film with, and I am so proud people responded to the film in such a positive way.

“I am thrilled that The King’s Speech won the Cadillac People’s Choice Award. The fact that this award is voted on exclusively by audiences made the award particularly special.”

By the numbers: 339 films in the 2010 Festival

1154 Festival screenings (Public plus Press and Industry)

59 countries represented at the Festival

365,457 Festival attendees (35,000 people attended the first Festival in 1976)

1,105 journalists attended the Festival in 2010 (145 press attended first Festival)

2,127 Canadian films shown at the Festival in its 35-year history

At TIFF, we’re dedicated to increasing the number of people who can see and discuss the treasures of Canadian and world cinema.

This year, TIFF Cinematheque, recognized internationally for the breadth and quality of its curated programming, celebrated its 20th anniversary. In 1990, TIFF took over management of the Ontario Film Institute, founded by the late scholar Gerald Pratley. Originally Cinematheque Ontario, it held screenings at the Art Gallery of Ontario until its move this year to TIFF Bell Lightbox.

Programming in 2010 was exceptional. The year began with Best of the Decade: An Alternative View, presenting a fascinatingly eclectic retrospective of the decade’s best films as selected by internationally-respected curators, scholars and critics. In the summer, retrospectives devoted to Japanese master Akira Kurosawa and controversial Italian filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini were highly successful.

The fall season, our first at TIFF Bell Lightbox, debuted with the very popular Essential Cinema screenings and events. The Essential 100 list of the most important and influential films of all time was created with TIFF audiences and experts. The films included Carl Theodor Dryer’s The Passion of Joan of Arc, David Cronenberg’s Videodrome, Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai, Satyajit Ray’s Pather Panchali, and Michael Snow’s experimental Wavelength. Many screenings were introduced by experts or individuals involved in the productions or artists influenced by the films. Our five new theatres have made more screenings of more films possible, allowing us to increase the number of films screened by 35% in 2010.

Towards the end of the year, retrospectives on Tim Burton, Charlie Chaplin and imprisoned Iranian director Jafar Panahi were screened to excellent response. We also hosted a special 30th anniversary screening of seminal Canadian western, The Grey Fox. With our new ability to screen 70mm films, we began with special presentations of three very different cinematic masterpieces: David Lean’s Lawrence of Arabia, Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and Jacques Tati’s Playtime treated audiences to unrivalled viewing experiences.

In association with the Brian Linehan Endowment Fund, TIFF launched In Conversation With …, presenting intimate onstage conversations with leading personalities from the world of film. Honouring one of Canada’s great interviewers, the initiative has met enthusiastic audiences, with highlights of the fall season including Isabella Rosellini and Douglas Trumbull, the special effects wizard of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Our popular monthly subscription series Reel Talk continued to preview the best in new releases from around the world, followed by discussions led by a film critic, academic or other expert. This year, its 10th, saw the series’ final screenings at Cineplex Odeon Varsity Cinemas. As the series transitions to TIFF Bell Lightbox in 2010-11, all screenings will be based in our new home, with one final year of screenings at Cineplex Odeon Sheppard Cinemas. Based on feedback received by Reel Talk subscribers, we divided the series into two streams: Sneak Previews, showcasing soon-to-be released feature films, and Contemporary World Cinema.

Film Circuit continued to build audiences in 163 communities across all 10 provinces which otherwise would have little or no access to independent, especially Canadian, cinema. Many of these screenings were attended by the film’s director. In 2010, 42 guests travelled to 18 communities, including Ruba Nadda (Cairo Time), Michael McGowan (Score: A Hockey Musical) and Bruce McDonald (This Movie is Broken).

Canadian films make up 30% of overall bookings, with 113 titles representing close to 600 screenings. Cooking with Stella, Cairo Time and A Shine of Rainbows proved the most popular titles, with Cooking with Stella winning this year’s Film Circuit People’s Choice Award along with The Secret in Their Eyes. Film Circuit returned revenues of nearly $800,000 to Canadian distributors.

By the numbers: 479 films screened at TIFF Cinematheque

Films from 35 countries screened at TIFF Cinematheque

185 Film Circuit groups

348 Film Circuit screenings

Pocket Fund enabled 2,721 children to attend screenings for free

50% increase in Reel Comfort participation

The public screening component of the Sprockets Toronto International Film Festival for Children was concentrated in one venue on one weekend, making it easier for families to enjoy the best of Canadian and international films for children and youth. Favourites this year included The Crocodiles and School Days With A Pig. Free hands-on film-craft activities were offered for children to enjoy before or after screenings.

With our new location, we can now host new releases and classic films for a week or more. The inaugural season of New Releases included Cannes Palme d’Or winner Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, the Oscar®-nominated Incendies directed by Denis Villeneuve and Jean-Luc Godard’s Film Socialisme.

TIFF Outreach programs brought film screenings and workshops to thousands of people who would otherwise be unable to attend. The Pocket Fund served more than 2,700 children and their families, a significant increase over last year. Many of these accessed the Fund through community groups or schools. Mental-health patients at Toronto General and St. Michael’s Hospital participated in monthly screenings and workshops for the fourth successful season of Reel Comfort. This year, 550 patients participated, an increase over last year.

With our new location, we can now host new releases and classic !lms for a week or more.

At TIFF, we know that film can be a powerful tool for learning about the world, and we want to share it with as many people as possible, beginning with children and youth.

Sprockets Toronto International Film Festival for Children, held in April, offered more than 68 films from 23 countries, all geared to audiences aged 3 to 18. Activities took place at two locations in 2010: Famous Players Canada Square and Cineplex Odeon Sheppard Cinemas. Sprockets devoted two-thirds of its screenings and workshops to school classes attending during the week, attracting nearly 10,000 school children. Teacher resources connected the films to different facets of the Ontario school curriculum. Free hands-on activities continued to be popular with families on the weekend.

One of the most effective ways to reach many children and youth is through their teachers. TIFF connected with thousands of educators in the Greater Toronto Area this year. In February, over

3,500 teachers were addressed at the Reading for the Love of It and Association for Media Literacy conferences. Lectures and workshops were given to teachers in Halton, Durham and York Regions. By the end of the year, more than 100 teachers had visited and toured TIFF Bell Lightbox.

TIFF further supported teachers by creating media literacy resources available online, and recommending websites offering additional material to educators. We also offered study guides for classes relating to our exhibition on Tim Burton, with school groups joining us for tours and workshops in January 2011.

TIFF connected with thousands of educators in the Greater Toronto Area this year.

To assist teachers in the classroom, two new films, The Auction and The Freshwater Plague, were donated to the John VanDuzer Children’s Film Collection. The collection makes outstanding films available for educators to use with their students. As with all films in the collection, study guides have been prepared connecting themes in the films with the Ontario curriculum.

Special Delivery engages youth in schools and community groups in under-served neighbourhoods with film screenings, discussions and workshops with Canadian filmmakers, free of charge.

Nearly 2,000 youth participated in the program, working closely with filmmakers and workshop facilitators to give participants the opportunity to discover the powerful world of the moving image.

We partnered with Canadian universities and colleges to introduce Higher Learning – a free programme examining film, new media and gaming from a variety of social, political and technological approaches. The initial season, running late September through mid-December included screenings, workshops, lectures, panel discussions and master classes for nearly 2,000 students, faculty and administration.

In the fall, we also began holding weekend workshops for children and youth. Director Trademarks taught the signature techniques of famous filmmakers. Other drop-in and registered workshops explored composing film scores, dance and fight choreography, costuming, and foley sound effects.

“And Walter Murch, the celebrated editor, here for a screening of Apocalypse Now Redux said he hadn’t heard the film sound that good since its premiere at Cannes.”

Best TIFF experience (off the job): “I’ve always been a big fan of the Festival’s Midnight Madness. A lot of the audience are hardcore horror fans, and it’s pretty hard to shock them. But a few years ago, a French film, À L’Intérieur left the audience utterly silent at the end, something I’ve never experienced. Everyone was completely overwhelmed. Since then it’s been a favourite of mine, and I’m looking forward to it coming to TIFF Bell Lightbox as part of the Best of Midnight Madness programme in 2011.”

“TIFF Bell Lightbox is unique in the world in its ability to screen films of nearly every format, aspect ratio and frame rate. This allows us to accurately present films from any era of film history, faithful to the director’s vision. My job is to see to it that the projectionists have everything they need to ensure the viewing experience for our audiences is as good as it was the first time the film was screened.

“For instance, today, most cinemas can screen films in only two aspect ratios. At TIFF Bell Lightbox, we have seven, including one used almost exclusively by German filmmakers of the 1920s! Likewise, we’re able to handle numerous frame rates. This was key to the Charlie Chaplin

retrospective which began at the end of the year. The funny, sped-up walk created by modern equipment projecting the films at the wrong frame rate was gone, and the films could be seen as Chaplin intended.”

Best part of the job: “It’s really rewarding to get positive feedback from great filmmakers and technical craftspeople who recognize and appreciate the high-quality viewing experience we create at TIFF Bell Lightbox. When Douglas Trumbull (special effects for 2001: A Space Odyssey) came to speak, he marvelled at everything we’re able to do here.

# FAVOURITE FILMS:

“ $e $in Red Line, which will be screening as part of the 2011 Terrence Malick retrospective, and $e Shining are !lms that have really stuck with me.”

TIFF is proud to have a part in the growth and success of the Canadian film industry, while remaining vital to international buyers, distributors and producers. The Festival’s Sales and Industry Office (SIO) is the primary means for TIFF to serve both. Additional events during Sprockets in April addressed the needs of professionals producing film and television for children.

Despite the economic downturn, the Festival continues to be considered a must-attend event for most of the industry, with a record number of delegates registered. Sales were up slightly from last year, with 59 films sold to 92 territories. The move to Reitman Square pleased producers, buyers and sales agents who appreciated the smaller distances between screenings, the sales office, restaurants and other meeting locations.

Industry programming was robust, with new series added this year. Moguls featured onstage interviews with producer Christine Vachon and industry veteran Bob Berney.

Focus On… looked at topical issues in the industry, including the convergence of film and gaming, 3D filmmaking and a now-legendary Twitter Showdown featuring Roger Ebert. The returning Master Class programme was a highlight this year, welcoming Robert Lantos, Canadian producer of Barney’s Version.

The Filmmakers’ Lounge was successfully launched, with an average daily attendance of more than 500 industry delegates. The lounge provided a venue for some of the industry programming as well as a place to relax, meet or work.

Producer’s Lab Toronto was another new introduction. Co-created by TIFF, the Ontario Media Development Corporation and European Film Promotion, the programme brought together a dozen European producers with an equal number of Canadian producers to discuss projects and develop relationships, with the goal of encouraging co-production projects with high artistic and commercial value. Already one project is known to be in the works as a result of the lab.

The Festival continued to be a platform for supporting emerging filmmakers with popular returning programmes Talent Lab, Telefilm Canada PITCH THIS! and Short Cuts Connections, providing selected producers access to senior industry professionals.

Industry programming was also held during Sprockets. The panel discussion, Kids Should See This: Tackling Challenging Content in Children’s Media addressed issues affecting writers, producers and broadcasters internationally.

TIFF encourages those who want to experience and understand film and filmmakers more deeply. This year we published five new books, welcomed hundreds of people to the Film Reference Library, and opened the first exhibitions in our two new galleries at TIFF Bell Lightbox.

The Film Reference Library carried out a successful move, closing for less than two months to move its entire collection, the world’s largest resource of English-language Canadian film and film-related materials, augmented by international film resources. This meant relocating 19,000 books, 2,000 scripts, 12,000 posters, 6,000 soundtracks, hundreds of special collections and many other items.

TIFF Bell Lightbox inaugurated a major new public exhibition space on its main floor, the HSBC Gallery – a museum-standard gallery with over 4,500 square feet that will feature year-round programming. Launched in September with Essential Cinema, the exhibition filled the HSBC Gallery spaces with iconic objects and images from the history of cinema, as well as internationally- acclaimed contemporary artworks drawing from or inspired by the most influential films. Special events accompanied the exhibition and screenings and included lectures, special introductions of the films and classical and popular musicians accompanying silent films.

As part of the program for the opening of TIFF Bell Lightbox, the new exhibitions department also commissioned and produced five original artworks by prominent Canadian filmmakers and artists. Atom Egoyan, Guy Maddin, Barr Gilmore, James Andean and François Xavier Saint-Pierre all created new installation-based works that were presented in the main gallery space, in two cinemas and throughout the building.

The Library is now located on the fourth floor of TIFF Bell Lightbox and includes the BMO Study Centre which houses the Gary and Joanne Reamey Family Media Centre, featuring four viewing stations for the Library’s 10,000 film and television reference copies on DVD, VHS and other formats. It also includes the Brian Linehan Research Room, where the public can access the collection. This year, new collections were received from Atom Egoyan, David Cronenberg and Richard Kerr, among others. A remarkable 2,500 people were welcomed between re-opening and December 31st.

In its new location, the Library for the first time has its own exhibition space, the Canadian Film Gallery. It opened in September with a permanent display, HOME, which tells the story of the King and John site where TIFF Bell Lightbox is situated. It includes artifacts found on the site during construction and delves into the development of this part of the city. The inaugural temporary exhibit for the fall was TIFF @ 35, presenting highlights from 35 years of the Festival’s posters.

At the end of November the Tim Burton exhibition opened, displaying more than 700 items including drawings, sculptures, videos and maquettes. Organized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York (MoMA), the show traced the creative development of this master of modern cinema, who came to TIFF Bell Lightbox to open the exhibition. The exhibition ran until April, 2011. Limited runs of Burton’s films accompanied the show, including a weekend-long “Burton Blitz” that presented Burton films in a back-to-back marathon screening.

TIFF continued its commitment to publications reflecting on seminal Canadian works by co-publishing three monographs with University of Toronto Press this year. They are:

(Director: Allan King)

(Director: Guy Maddin)

(Director: Joyce Wieland)

TIFF also published two exhibition catalogues: ESSENTIAL CINEMA and TIM BURTON.

The real value of our new permanent home is not only that it allows us to do more of what we already do well, but that leveraging our facilities allows us to help other cultural organizations do more of what they excel at.

Between September and December, two festivals, Rendezvous with Madness and Planet in Focus held their opening night screenings at TIFF Bell Lightbox. In addition, discussions were held with 15 major Toronto festivals about holding all or part of their events in TIFF Bell Lightbox in the coming year. Six partnerships were confirmed by year’s end.

We also participated in two major nationwide and city-wide events, welcoming thousands of people into TIFF Bell Lightbox during Culture Days in September and Nuit Blanche in October.

By the numbers: 2,028 TIFF volunteers in 2010

70,355 hours of volunteer time

506 hours were logged by one individual in 2010

107 TIFF staff were former volunteers

Festival 2010 had 800 returning volunteers

If you’re a filmmaker arriving at the airport, chances are the friendly face who meets you, perhaps even speaking your language, is a volunteer. If you’re in a Festival lineup, the person who comes out and announces there are 11 seats left, allowing you to squeak into a much-anticipated film, is a volunteer. If you’re a child participant in a weekend workshop, the person helping you create a gaping wound on your arm using makeup is a volunteer.

This year, 2,000 volunteers donated their time to TIFF, adding up to a value of $1.6 million. That’s a spectacular figure. But it’s even more incredible to consider that’s an increase of 30% in a single year. The growth in programming since our move to TIFF Bell Lightbox has meant a significant increase in volunteer opportunities and people have responded in a truly remarkable way.

Volunteers have been key to the Festival’s success in becoming the world’s leading public film festival. They will be essential to the ongoing success of TIFF Bell Lightbox and the ambitious programming we will be undertaking in the years to come. Their enthusiasm sets the tone for all our activities and reminds us all why we’re here: for the love of film.

Favourite film of 2010: “I saw The King’s Speech at the Festival. Remember, this is before anyone had seen it. We sang Happy Birthday to Colin Firth and settled in for the film. How gratifying to see a film that affects you in all the right ways.”

Best thing about TIFF Bell Lightbox: “It really attracts audiences who want movie-going to be an occasion. They behave respectfully towards each other: there are no conversations, no multi-tasking and no phones ringing. They’re really engaged in what’s happening onscreen.”

“I started volunteering for TIFF five years ago as an usher. A few years ago I joined the HR interview team, selecting volunteer applicants and matching them with roles that suit their interests and experience.

“This year, I’m taking a sabbatical from my teaching post and have also been volunteering with the Higher Learning team, helping with the programming for post-secondary students. The Master Class with Tim Burton was wonderful. I chatted with students who couldn’t believe such established industry people would want to talk to them.

“Volunteering with TIFF has been an exceptional experience. I love the opportunity to learn new skills, develop friendships with like- minded people and understand the operations of one of the city’s largest arts organizations.”
