Vancouver Film School has struck a strategic alliance with top-tier Hollywood talent agency, Innovative Artists.

The best and most promising VFS students from the Acting for Film & Television, Film Production, and Writing for Film & Television programs will now have the unprecedented opportunity to access major decision-makers through a new initiative spearheaded by Head of Writing, Michael Baser.

The objective is to bring these talented students to the attention of Innovative Artists agents, who may then choose to pursue representation options.

“I am incredibly excited by this new association between Innovative Artists and Vancouver Film School,” says Baser. “I can’t think of any other film school that has an arrangement like this with a major entertainment talent agency. This is a huge opportunity for our students.”

Innovative Artists represents a wide variety of film and television professionals, ranging from Oscar winners and nominees to some of the most prominent rising artists in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York City. The agency’s interest in emerging talent at VFS represents a competitive advantage for students as they prepare to enter the industry with professional-quality reels, demos, and portfolios.

“Innovative Artists is dedicated to representing the entertainment industry’s most sought-after writers, actors, and directors,” says company President Scott Harris. “We look forward to being exposed to selected students through this exciting first look initiative between our agency and Vancouver Film School’s renowned Acting, Writing, and Film Production programs.”

Good luck to all Acting, Film Production, and Writing students!
