Introduce Yourself : London or Toronto? by David Weinberg

London or Toronto?

I'm starting to turn to development for a RomCom adaptation of my novel, Scrooge's Folly. Budget will be around $2 mm. Opinions on filming in London versus Toronto...crews, support, financing...etc?

Hey David Weinberg! We actually have a webinar (I'll link below) on working in the UK if you want to check it out -- I was involved with a romcom that shot in Toronto (but it was during lockdown so I didn't get to be on set) and when we were pricing out all our different options, that definitely seemed to be the most cost effective for production. However, getting financing I'm not sure since the project was with a streamer and had financing already. That said, there are also some great financing resources here on Stage 32 --
