Purpose
Screen Australia is now accepting applications for events, conferences and activities which exhibit unique benefits to the Australian screen industry.
Overview
These events must demonstrate an understanding of changes in audience engagement and how content is financed, made and delivered. Applications must demonstrate how they will have an impact on their audience/participants, or within their particular area of focus.
The aims of the program are to:
- create opportunities through new, original and inclusive approaches to the industry that will expand networks and grow the Australian screen industry
- support impactful events which are also evolving to be relevant to future audiences and the screen industry
- provide opportunities for professional development/business growth.
Screen Australia is interested in receiving applications from organisers of industry events which are innovative and forward-focused, with plans to engage practitioners in the rapidly changing screen sector.
Due to the limited nature of Screen Industry Partnership funding, applicants are required to discuss the scope and details of their proposal and confirm funding availability with Manager, Festivals and Industry Partnerships.
