Berry's Camera Shorts (BCShorts) got established in 2024 as a way for former students of the Vancouver Young Actors School to create their movies after completing their acting training. The principle behind the BCShorts initiative is to learn filmmaking by making films and learning acting by acting. To go out and make movies together. The best movies that can be made with the budget, cast and locations we have. Thanks to the support of acting teachers and the filmmaking community in British Columbia, we make it possible.
