13 English-language broadcasters licensing documentaries Over the past few years, more broadcasters are licensing documentaries In terms of one-off documentaries:  Mid-budget productions attract the most broadcaster interest  Low-budget productions, however, are attracting more broadcasters In terms of series productions:  Lower-budget series have increased in popularity, particularly with specialty services  Big-budget series continue to be of interest to a small number of broadcasters Source: CTF

14 English-language broadcasters licensing documentaries While at least two dozen broadcasters access CTF funding for English-language documentaries, that access is highly concentrated In the past three years, five broadcasters have accessed 70% of CTF funding to English-language documentaries  The CBC claims almost ¼ of the CTF’s funding to English-language documentaries  Specialty services, in total, account for about 2/3 of CTF documentary funding Source: CTF

22 French-language broadcasters licensing documentaries Far fewer broadcasters license documentaries in French compared to English  In terms of one-offs, specialty and public broadcasters are most active  There has been a decline in broadcaster hours of low- and mid-budget one-offs, but increased licensing activity in big-budget one-offs  Specialty services are most active in lower-budget series licensing  Big-budget series are more popular with the SRC than other broadcasters Source: CTF

23 French-language broadcasters licensing documentaries In the past three years, 5 broadcasters have accessed 3/4 of CTF funding to French- language documentaries  The SRC claims over ¼ of the funding in documentaries  Educational broadcasters account for another 30% Source: CTF

24 Canadian Documentary Producers The annual Playback survey shows that, in 2003, there were at least 75 documentary producers in Canada  20 producers account for over 70% of the documentary production volume  Another 55 producers account for less than 30% of total documentary production volume  Fewer than half of the largest documentary producers also produce “magazine/lifestyle/reality” productions

25 Concluding Observations Documentaries are not homogeneous Policy-makers should be aware of the large volume of documentary production, and its significant contribution to economic activity.

26 Concluding Observations The public sector provides a majority of the financing, and CRTC-regulated broadcasters contribute a significant share. Policy and regulation need to be aligned. If feature-length documentaries are important to policy-makers, then need to develop a theatrical market and financing tailored to their specific needs
