Alberta Film, a branch of the Government of Alberta, supports the growth, sustainability, competitiveness and business
attraction of Alberta's screen-based production industries. The Government of Alberta continues to lead the way in providing support for production having been the first jurisdiction in Canada to both establish a provincial film commission office and offer a film and television incentive program. Today, Alberta Film continues to carry out government's mandate through three key areas:
- Marketing, advertising and event management including the marketing of Alberta's screen-based production incentive program, the Alberta Multimedia Development Fund
, a unique production incentive in the form of a grant against
all eligible production expenses incurred in Alberta.;
- Locations and logistics services including funding and facilitating scouting within the province and supporting film-friendly initiatives; and
- Industry development and alignment with government.
