Uniquely Documentary

Our company Impact Communications
Ltd., has teamed up with Thomas Film Productions Inc.
to develop this documentary as a value-added training and promotional
tool for the Uniquely Programs.
The objective is to provide a learning
and educational tool for entrepreneurs as well as the educators
and trainers in Canadian and international communities.
For the Communities
- To provide facilitators, trainers
and educators from various organizations and agencies, who assist
micro-businesses with a tool that would help them fully understand
what retail buyers are looking for before they purchase the product(s).
Trainers would actually see what the merchandise experts are looking
for when doing product development and how the process helps get
the small producer ready.
- To provide the entrepreneurial centers
and the agencies that work with small businesses to share this
video with their local producers in advance so that they know
what to expect when they are beginning to think about accessing
the global marketplace.
For the Entrepreneur
- To provide the entrepreneur who
is just beginning to think about developing a product for the
marketplace. Again, the video will act as a learning and educational
tool for the wanna be entrepreneur, teaching him/her how to better
prepare themselves for a professional wholesale trade show.

Betty Thomas' career started in the
motion picture industry in 1979 in Vancouver, Canada with her late
husband John Thomas. Together they built a highly successful mechanical

Betty has since restructured her group
of companies now known as Thomas Film Group Inc. and is comprised
of three divisions:

As a Vancouver-based company, Thomas
Film Group benefits from the expertise, contacts and reputation
that the special effects division has maintained over the past twenty
three years and has set a solid foundation for the newly added studio
and production facility.
The three divisions plan and work in
concert, sharing resources and taking advantage of marketing synergy
through the executive of three core corporate activities:
- Special effects and aerial rigging
services as well as equipment rentals and sales
- On site, state-of-the-art movie
sound stage, with prelit, green/blue screens, and installed flying
rigs

films, television projects, documentaries and commercials
