STATE OF THE NATION: MEET THE SCREEN AGENCIES
Business Not only are state and territory screen agencies critical to the production pipeline, they are often first on board and therefore the first to take a risk in the early development process. Join agency representatives for up-to-date insights into documentary and factual funding opportunities, industry development initiatives, sector trends and recent success stories.
When is the right time to approach a screen agency with your nonficiton project and what support can they unlock?
In this not to be missed gathering of the state screen agencies, representatives from VicScreen, Screen NSW, Screen Queensland, South Australian Film Corporation, Screen Tasmania, Screenwest and Screen Territory will cover documentary and factual funding rounds, location and production incentive schemes, eligibility and recent success stories.
An opportunity to keep up to date on the latest from Australia’s screen agencies including the essentials of getting your project from development to completion as well how they collaborate across agencies and with international partners to ensure that vital stories continue to get told.
