About VUCAVU.education

VUCAVU’s shared catalogue spans over 60+ years of Canadian moving image art and includes documentary, fiction, experimental, and animation among many other genres.

We've been collaborating with arts sector and academic partners nationwide to create an online platform to make independent Canadian film and video art MORE accessible for educational uses that maintains a collaborative approach and keeps the fair payment of artists at the forefront of our goals.

CURRENT EDUCATIONAL resources INCLUDE:

 

1. Educator VUCAVU Accounts

Explore the shared catalogue to find media artworks and purchase licencing for teaching use in your educational institution.

Educators and librarians can request a free, time-limited Educator VUCAVU Account to preview and select works from the shared catalogue for educational licensing.

2. VUCAVU Private Pages

This recent platform function allows you to present one or more films/videos found in the shared catalogue to a group/audience by adding the works selected to a secure and hidden page online.

The Private Page is accessed by the group by using a unique login we make for you to see that page. They are set for a pre-determined amount of time and the layout can be tailored to your needs. Great for teaching or programming uses.

4. VUCAVU.education Institutional Subscriptions: Coming Soon!

      

Over the last few years, VUCAVU's team has been working to develop the technology so we can give educational access to a selection of films from the shared catalogue and make them available for group licencing as part of a new institutioanl subsciption model. 

The new microsite we've built is called VUCAVU.education and will launch in the spring of 2025.
