NEIL BREGMAN
Executive Producer/Producer
President Sound Venture Productions

Neil Bregman is President and founder of 28-year old Sound Venture Productions, one of Ottawa’s largest and most successful independent film and television production companies.

Originally formed in 1980, Sound Venture Productions started as the first radio commercial and audio production company in Ottawa. In 1989, Sound Venture turned its focus to the bigger challenge of competing in the international world of film and television production.

Under Bregman’s direction, Sound Venture has established itself as a leader in the production of performing arts, documentary, cultural, and children’s programming. Bregman continues to produce new programs every year, adding to the 250+ hours of proprietary titles in Sound Venture’s catalogue, all of which are self-distributed. Bregman acts as Executive Producer on all of these programs, as well as a Producer on most of them. Distribution is handled in-house through Sound Venture International.

Since 2002, Sound Venture has aggressively expanded into the world of film and television movie production, promoting Ottawa as a viable production centre for TV movies, serial dramas and feature films. Today, with over 30 movie credits under his belt, Bregman has helped establish Ottawa as a viable production centre for film and television drama..

Bregman has been an active member of the industry, having sat on the Board of Directors of the Canadian Film and Television Production Association (CFTPA) for 9 years, and currently sitting on the Board of the Ottawa-Gatineau Film & Television Development Corporation.
