Interactive Digital Media

Digital media draws on the best from the fields of creative content, computing and telecommunication. Ontario excels in all three, which is why the province has been a hotbed of digital media activity for close to four decades—and why our products are sought after the world over.

Our digital media sector offers expertise across the entire spectrum from animation and special effects to Internet publishing and broadcasting; from post-production to video and computer games. It generates annual revenues of $1 billion—and it’s growing fast, propelled by the creative talent coming out of our universities and colleges, generous R&D incentives and an ideal environment for work and play.

Ontario digital media producers are constantly pushing the envelope. Just one example of their groundbreaking success? Over the past five years nearly every film nominated for a special effects Oscar has used technology developed in Ontario.
