The Canadian Association of Labour Media (CALM) has awarded both IATSE 891 and CUPW The Cliff Scotton Prize for narrative, video, audio, or visual that reflects the history, traditions, and culture of the labour movement. Our 60th Anniversary documentary, commissioned by the 60th Anniversary Committee and directed by Business Representative Crystal Braunwarth, is available to view on the 891 website.

In honour of Indigenous Peoples Day celebrated June 21st, we spotlight Doreen Manuel — an Indigenous (Secwepemc/Ktunaxa) artist and educator with a passion for advancing authentic representation and inclusion of Indigenous peoples in film. In February 2024, she and Carmen Thompson led an Indigenous Costume Design Workshop for 891 members, with discussions underway to offer similar workshops for other 891 departments in the future. In our latest Spotlight, Doreen shares insights into what inspires her work, her vision for the future of film in BC, and how the industry can open doors for more collaborative relationships with Indigenous peoples.
