Welcome to our 3rd in a series GDC Sponsor Featurette.
Local Vancouver Film School is a brand new sponsor for the GDC and we are very happy to have partnering with. Among other great benefits for GDC members, VFS recently handed one of our members a free seat in their Summer Intensive Digital Design Program!

What makes VFS Digital Design so successful or unique from others in your industry?

VFS Digital Design is an intensive, one-year, industry led and instructed program. We live by our mantra, "results matter". We endeavour to emulate an agency environment as much as possible so our students can integrate seamlessly into the professional world upon graduation. We offer our students multiple opportunities throughout the year to work with real-world clients in the non-profit sector through a collaborative, team-based approach. We have a keen focus on career preparation that includes the integration of project management and presentation skills courses throughout the year. In the latter part of the curriculum, we pair students with successful industry professionals to serve as their mentors on their graduate projects. And, we continually bring in world-renowned guest speakers and artists in residence to inspire students.

What makes MET so successful or unique from others in your industry?

At MET, we like the saying “Well done is better than well said”, we would rather do the right thing than try to cut corners. We believe in beautiful design and great branding, in fact that is how we made our name, working with some of Vancouver’s and North America’s most celebrated Design teams.  We have enabled some amazing feats of imagination to come to life through collaboration and wonderful relationships.  This business of communication lets us live vicariously through designers eyes. We have the toolkit, the toys, the playground and we love to share.

Welcome to the first of several GDC sponsor profile featurettes.
We love to give more exposure to our great friends who understand the value of an association with the GDC year after year. In turn this will also inform our members of the sponsors' value, other potential sponsors of what they are missing and how to get involved. It's a triple-win situation really.
