The Animation and VFX (A&VFX) Group of BC

The Animation and VFX (A&VFX) Group of BC is a new collaborative structure that was launched in July 2018, powered by both MPPIA and DigiBC. This is a joint membership that provides animation and visual effects studios the ability to be involved in both trade associations without having to pay twice. The A&VFX Group will have representation on the boards of both MPPIA and DigiBC (depending on the level of membership) and continue to partner and align with CMPA.

We are all devoted to ensuring studios experience value for their membership, and we know that a shared voice and vision for the creative tech sector in our province is the strongest way to ensure our mutual objectives are met. This group was established to ensure interests are being represented and simply put, we are stronger together.
