7th Annual Toronto Documentary Forum

The 7th Annual Toronto Documentary Forum takes place from 3 - 4 May 2006. Hot Docs' Toronto Documentary Forum (TDF) is a superb way to showcase a documentary project in front of key international partners, as well as an invaluable event for up-to-the-minute market intelligence for all participants, whether buyer or seller.


ENTRY FORM NOW ON-LINE!

Presentation Slot Deadline: Wednesday February 1, 2006

Observer Seat Deadline: Thursday March 16, 2006

Unique in North America, the TDF's unusual format provides an excellent snapshot of productions coming into the marketplace, and an opportunity to hear broadcast decision-makers discuss their upcoming programming. It's a two-day, limited-seating event focused around a schedule of 30 pre-selected international project presentations (by their producers and commissioning editors) and six Channel Update presentations. The TDF's delegates are an elite group of the world's documentary creators, programmers and distributors. This spring they will include over 100 documentary broadcast and distribution colleagues from Europe, the USA and the rest of the world.
BACK FOR 2006: Hot Docs is pleased to repeat its offer of a complimentary Hot Docs pass for each overseas TDF delegate.

The TDF 2006 features:

  • 30 pre-selected project presentation slots including five for projects at a rough-cut stage with no market partner attached;
  • two Mounties Hat positions drawn by lottery from business cards of delegates;
  • Channel Update presentations from six leading international broadcasters which will showcase highlights of their recent specials, limited-series and one-off non-fiction programming as well as their upcoming programming interests;
  • Over 100 key international documentary broadcast programmers and distributors;
  • opportunities for meeting with a roster of international market consultants;
  • catered lunches;
  • email and messaging system;
  • DVD playback equipment;
  • lounge and meeting room.

 

Hot Docs, North America's largest documentary festival and market, presents its 13th annual edition from April 28 - May 7, 2006 with a Spotlight on France. An outstanding selection of 100 documentaries from Canada and around the world will be presented. Hot Docs also mounts a full roster of industry events for its delegates.
