 The National Film Board of Canada (usually National Film Board or NFB) is a Canadian public filmmaking organization established to produce and distribute films that inform Canadians and promote Canada around the world. Its name in French is Office national du film du Canada or ONF. The NFB is best known for its documentaries and animated short films, several of which have won an Academy Award. The NFB reports to the Parliament of Canada through the Minister of Canadian Heritage. It has French and English production branches.

The organization's purpose and mission have been re-defined numerous times throughout its history. Currently, the NFB's mandate is defined by the Minister of Canadian Heritage:
The overarching objective of the National Film Board is to produce and distribute audio-visual works which provoke discussion and debate on subjects of interest to Canadian audiences and foreign markets; which explore the creative potential of the audio-visual media; and which achieve recognition by Canadians and others for excellence, relevance and innovation. — Sheila Copps, Minister of Canadian Heritage (2000) The National Film Board has defined a list of primary and secondary goals to fulfill in order to meet its mandate, as well as a set of related activities that can be performed to meet those goals. Primary activities are: - create programming reflecting Canada's linguistic duality and cultural diversity
- create programming of film and audiovisual works on subjects relevant to the general public or niche audiences
- support innovative and experimental projects in new and interactive media
- exploit the audiovisual heritage of the NFB
These are to be achieved through various programs, such as the Aboriginal film program, implementing a major bilingual website on the history of Canada, and incorporating internet and interactive tools into film-making.
Secondary activities include:
- broadcasting NFB films on national television networks and specialty services
- developing and maintaining an e-commerce system to sell products directly to Canadian and international customers
- diversifying and developing markets for NFB products
To achieve these goals, the NFB plans include: creating educational television markets by signing contracts with American school boards, colleges and universities, and granting them certain rights; developing in-flight markets by working with airlines and distributors specilizing in that field; and developing the CineRoute project, a cinema-on-demand service via the internet. The NFB plans to develop new territories, particularly China, Brazil and Mexico.
History In 1938, the Government of Canada invited John Grierson, a British documentary film-maker, to study the state of the government's film production. To that date, the Canadian Government Motion Picture Bureau, established in 1918, had been the major Canadian film producer. The results of Grierson's report were included in the National Film Act of 1939, which led to the establishment of the NFB. In part, it was founded to create propaganda in support of the Second World War. 1938 (MCMXXXVIII) was a common year starting on Saturday (link will take you to calendar). ...

When Norman McLaren joined the organization in 1941, the NFB began production of animation. The NFB proved to be an organization that would give Canada a presence in the film world. The animation department eventually gained distinction, particularly with the pioneering work of McLaren, an internationally recognized experimental filmmaker. The NFB was a pioneer in several novel techniques such as pinscreen animation, but most of the Oscars and many other awards it won were done in traditional cell animation. Norman McLaren, C.C.,C.Q. (April 11, 1914-January 27, 1987) was a Scottish animator and film director known for his work for the National Film Board of Canada. ...

A revision of the National Film Act in 1950 removed any direct government intervention into the operation and administration of the NFB.[1]
In 1952, McLaren's Neighbours won an Oscar. An allegory about war and peace featuring two neighbours fighting over a flower, the short was considered too violent by some; it has garnered the label "one of the most controversial films the NFB ever made". [2] Further, the eight-minute film was politically motivated:
"I was inspired to make Neighbours by a stay of almost a year in the People's Republic of China. Although I only saw the beginnings of Mao's revolution, my faith in human nature was reinvigorated by it. Then I came back to Quebec and the Korean War began. (...) I decided to make a really strong film about anti-militarism and against war." — Norman McLaren [3] However, the version of Neighbours that ultimately won an Oscar was not the version McLaren had originally created. In order to make the film palatable for American and European audiences, McLaren was required to remove a scene in which the two men, fighting over the flower, murdered the other's wife and children.[4]
Neighbours also popularized the form of character movement referred to as pixillation, a variant of stop motion. Pixilation (from pixilated) is a stop motion technique where real actors are used in an animated film, by repeatedly posing while one or more frame is taken and changing pose slightly before the next frame or frames. ...
Stop motion is an animation technique which makes things that are static appear to be moving. ...
With the creation of the Canadian Film Development Corporation in 1967 (now known as Telefilm Canada), the mandate for the National Film Board was refined. The Canadian Film Development Corporation would become responsible for promoting the development of the film industry [5], a role the NFB had never undertaken, and for which it was ill-suited. Telefilm Canada is a federal cultural agency dedicated primarily to the development and promotion of the Canadian film, television, and new media industries. ...
In the mid-90s, the NFB absorbed a 32% cut to its operating budget, forcing it to layoff staff, close its film lab, sound stage (now privatized) as well as other departments. This has been followed by smaller budget cuts in recent years. The six-storey John Grierson building at its Montreal HQ has sat empty for several years -- with staff now based solely in its adjacent Norman McLaren building. A sound stage is a hangar-like structure, building or room, that is soundproof for the production of theatrical motion pictures and television, usually inside a movie studio. ...

Controversy In addition to Neighbours, many NFB productions have been criticised for their content, either for moral and social reasons, or because the production presents an unpopular interpretation of widely-held beliefs.
If You Love This Planet, Which won an Academy Award for best documentary short subject, was labelled foreign propaganda under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 in the United States.

The Kid Who Couldn't Miss, released in 1982, is one of the most controversial films produced by the NFB. Directed and produced by Paul Cowan, it questions the facts of fighter pilot Billy Bishop's accomplishments during World War I. Bishop, a highly-decorated military figure, is considered a Canadian icon — many books and films have been created about him, and a museum in Owen Sound, Ontario bears his name. The film specifically questions accounts of Bishop's solo mission to attack a German aerodrome on June 2, 1917, for which he was awarded a Victoria Cross, and suggests the event was imaginary and that Bishop exaggerated his own accomplishments. Canadian veteran's groups were outraged by the insinuation, and Cowan received many irate letters, "He got inundated by thousands of furious letters, rumblings in the Senate subcommittee on Veterans' Affairs, and demands that the government cut off funding to the NFB." [6] Billy Bishop William Avery Billy Bishop VC, CB, DSO & Bar, MC, DFC, ED (February 8, 1894 – September 11, 1956) was a Canadian World War I flying ace, officially credited with 72 victories, the highest number for a British Empire pilot. ...

H. Clifford Chadderton, Chief Executive Officer of The War Amps, created the film The Billy Bishop Controversy to counter the bias he and other veterans perceived in the NFB film. Released in 1986, it attempts to demonstrate that Cowan and the NFB did not properly research the historical records, and reached faulty conclusions about Bishop. The Kid Who Couldn't Miss also led Chicago native, and Bishop fan, Albert Lowe to create a website (www.billybishop.net) devoted to the fighter pilot. [7] Lowe complained about the characterization of Bishop in the film, and commented that "That year Mr. Paul Cowan, with $514,007.00 of Canadian Taxpayer's money, did one of the foulest deeds possible without committing some form of violence." [8] Originally released as a documentary, The Kid Who Couldn't Miss is now listed as a docudrama in NFB documents. Hugh Clifford Chadderton, C.C., O. Ont. ...

Despite the problems and criticisms it may generate, the NFB does not avoid controversial topics, and sometimes encourages its artists to pursue such topics. Most of the controversial work currently produced by the NFB centres on polarized social and moral issues. During the height of the pro-rights and pro-life abortion debate of the 1980s, the NFB released the documentary film Abortion: Stories from North and South (1984). According to a synopsis by the American Friends Service Committee: American Friends Service Committee logo The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) is a Religious Society of Friends (Quaker) affiliated organization which works for social justice, peace and reconciliation, abolition of the death penalty, and human rights, and provides humanitarian relief. ...
"[It shows] that women of all races, religions and social classes have had - and always will have - abortions, whether society allows the right to abortion or not. The only issue is whether abortions will be safe or whether they will be dangerous to women's health." [9] Another controversial NFB film, Out Stories of Lesbian and Gay Youth (also referred to as Out) from 1993, targets Canadian teens. The film promotes equality with respect to sexual orientation: Delving into the emotional, societal and familial conflicts lesbian and gay youth often face, this film breaks the damaging silence surrounding sexual orientation and sexual differences.[10] The film drew some attention from religious groups and social conservatives, who felt the taxpayer-funded NFB should not promote the so-called "lifestyle choice" of homosexuality among teens. Silva Basmajian, the film's producer, was quoted by the Western Report as saying that "Mainly we're going to be selling it to schools. There's some resistance to it out there, so we'll have to work it in across the country, school board by school board."[11] Cover of the August 26, 1997 edition of Alberta Report The Alberta Report was a Canadian right-of-center magazine which has now ceased to exist. ...
Works
 The NFB's Toronto office features the "Mediatheque," where visitors can watch up to 90 minutes of NFB productions, at private digital viewing stations. The National Film Board produces works in various styles. It is most notable for documentaries, short films and animation. The government-funded organization has enjoyed success in part because it has had the freedom to pursue artistic endeavours with minimal government intervention.

Canada Vignettes During the 1970s and early 1980s, the National Film Board produced a series of vignettes, some of which aired on CBC during commercial breaks. The vignettes became popular because of their cultural depiction of Canada, and because they represented its changing state. Indeed, the vignette Faces was made to represent the increasing cultural and ethnic diversity of Canada. The word vignette has several meanings, depending on the context. ...

The NFB employs 490 full-time equivalent staff, with an annual budget of $70 million (for 2000-2004). Funding is derived primarily from government of Canada transfer payments, and also from its own revenue streams. These revenues are from print sales, film production services, rentals, and royalties, and total up to $10 million yearly; the NFB lists this as Respendable Revenues in its financial statements.
