Acclaimed South Australian film and television producer Kate Croser has been appointed the new Chief Executive of the SAFC.

Formerly Head of Production and Development at KOJO Entertainment, Ms Croser’s credits include Australian box office hit Top End Wedding and award-winning films The Infinite Man and Boys in the Trees.

“Having produced numerous film and television projects and run several production companies in South Australia I am deeply plugged into the fantastic wealth of talent, businesses, crews, and advantages within the South Australian screen industry,” Ms Croser said.

“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the team at the South Australian Film Corporation to leverage off a strong base of production and stimulate the expansion of the whole sector.”

Ms Croser comes to the role at a time of record growth for South Australia’s screen industry, with Hollywood blockbuster Mortal Kombat set to begin production next month.
