A few notes:
The box office I refer to is called "Festival Box Office at Toronto Life Square" at Yonge & Dundas as opposed to the various name incarnations I came up with.
This is my first ever vlog attempt, I hope you enjoy it!
The Toronto International Film Festival 2008 runs from September 4-13/08 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

OMG Shannon the Movie Moxie, I LOVED watching this! I love seeing you vlogging here and congrats on the great swag and holy cow I can't believe that one movie may end up costing you an additional $40, bummer. I wish I could go to the festival but getting your coverage is like being there.
Way to go on your first vlog, it rocked!
I love the vlogging! There's something so glamorous about saying, I just watched Movie Moxie's new Vlog entry - have you seen it?
That's great info about the theatre sizes. And how fascinating about the shift in venues away from the traditional spots.
I can't wait to read, I mean, see more! Are you going to share the truffles? ;)
Good vlog. That's the first I heard about 1 ticket per film for the 30 ticket package. What's up with that? I usually get packages and a few tickets get resold (at cost) to friends to see films with me... these are people who would only see 1 or 2 films at the festival.
Thank goodness I cut back to 20 total tickets this year.
Thanks for the enthusiastic response everyone :)
Currently it looks like no The Good The Bad The Weird for me. Here's hoping it comes to regular release in Toronto.
Paul, here is the link for the 30-ticket pass info, it's on the TIFF site under Tickets, Packages, Regular Packages"

from the link:
"Festival Lite Package
-$375.00
-Enjoy up to 30 different films during the Festival — for as little as $12.50 per film!
-One ticket per screening to any regular public screening of your choice.
-Not valid for Gala screenings at Roy Thomson Hall or presentations at the Visa Screening Room at the Elgin Theatre.
-Eligible to participate in Advance Order Procedure"
The price does not include service charges.
I always recommend reading all the details on passes, films and procedures from the official site.
"Line buddy" - too funny!
Good tips on the theatre sizes.
Hope you do more of these!
what a fabulous vlog :) how wonderful to hear your voice!! : )
wish i was there to go to the festival ...
AUGH! THat is so so so AWESOME Shannon. I love seeing you vlog! What a great addition to Movie Moxie. If this were a dance movie, it would be called "The Way She Vlogs". Or maybe, "Vlog Up: The Streets".
I'm always impressed by your clever and useful approach to covering film. I really feel like I'm watching a pro in action here.
I love the fading in and out. You've got charm, girl.
Thanks everyone for the enthusiastic response! I hope to continue vlogging throughout the festival.
