About VUCAVU

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 the 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:

 

1. Educator User Accounts

4. VUCAVU Private Pages

Our Private Pages were created to present one or more films/videos pre-selected from the shared catalogue to a group/audience. The pages are set up for a predetermined amount of time and the page layout can be tailored to your needs.

Each group/institution is given a unique login to access their private pages and they are a great tool for teaching or programming uses where audiences will access the artworks remotely.
