Decades back MOTION magazine was originated, edited and published by PETER EVANCHUCK with the invaluable assistance of James McLarty, Grant Patterson, Claudia Wittgens, Graeme Box and Anika Turk - MOTION covered exclusively CANADIAN FILM, THEATRE and TV and for almost ten years was and perhaps still is the only publication of its sort. Evanchuck, now in his elder years, intends to gather all issues, scan them and make them avialable to all interested persons - MOTION is a vital part of Canada's History and shouldn't be forgotten, Stay tuned.... more coming sooner than later...

BELOW is a taste of what each issue contains and a short excerpt from these historic articles::

  1. I'm trying to find more info about the film in the Barry Manilow article. Do you have this issue?

  2. What a delight to discover an article I had written (and forgotten) from the early days of the Canadian film industry. Thanks Peter for digitizing these pieces that document the important early struggles in the business. Now I have to dig out my old copies of Motion, Cinema Canada and That's Showbusiness to remember what else I wrote. - Gunter Ott
