Telefilm deadline

 The Telefilm Talent to Watch program deadline is the end of the month, but William needs a letter of support from one of the four Saskatchewan designated organizations. One is Paved, whom we've contacted. They haven't looked at them this year, but it is a stretch because William has never joined and has no history with them. It does occur to me that William really should join Paved as it is a multi-disciplinary group and a good fit for him. The second is the Filmpool. I thought they would be into it because there was excitement about supporting the program at the meeting at the end of March, but apparently by mid-April that tone had changed. The third is SMPIA, which is now called Sask Screens or something and they had a deadline two weeks ago under their brand new banner that was completely outside our radar. The fourth is my own department, and Mike Rollo has given William today as a deadline to submit for "our" approval.
