Dart and Rogalski Join Toronto Shorts Programming Team

The Toronto International Film Festival has appointed two new programmers to its Short Cuts Canada team. Artist and programmer Jay Dart and filmmaker and curator Alex Rogalski will join programmer Agata Smoluch Del Sorbo for the program. Dart is producer and creative director of RESFEST Digital Film Festival and production designer for Now Magazine, while Rogalski is director of the "One Take Super 8 Event," which he started in Regina, Saskatchewan "to create new cinema for local audiences." In addition to two new programmers, the Festival is announcing that for the first time, short films which have been created for online audiences and may have previously appeared online, are now eligible for submission into the Short Cuts Canada program.
