Playing with Form in Factual

Craft Join the SBS team as they traverse the complex territory of playing with form in factual - the challenges involved and how it can ultimately help secure a commission.

Join SBS commissioners and factual producers for an exploratory discussion of experimenting with form in factual as they dissect two major upcoming commissions as case studies: the ITV-adapted, globally successful Alone series for Australian audiences, and Chemical Media’s new approach to tackling the history series format in Who The Bloody Hell Are We? The session delves into the genre-busting creative process, filming and writing methodology, team structures, and creative approaches, as well as revealing the challenges of experimentation to deliver innovative shows.
