First Shots Logo BRITISH COLUMBIA FILM, in partnership with CTV and Omni Film, has released the much-anticipated First Shots Training Program DVD as a means of introducing directors to the world of episodic television. The First Shots Training Program was specifically designed to provide opportunities for emerging directors and writers, giving them their 'first shot' working on a network television prime-time series. The first season of Robson Arms, CTV's 13-episode half-hour comedy/drama, became that training ground.

** Winner of a prestigious Silver Telly Award, AMTEC Media Festival Panasonic Award and AMTEC Media Festival Award of Excellence **

The First Shots DVD is now available for purchase at Biz Books in Vancouver or directly through British Columbia Film. It retails for $24.95 (25% student / 40% educational institution discount), and is ideal for both individual and classroom use.
