AUSFILM PUBLICATION #5 – WOMEN MAKING IT IN AUSTRALIA

AUSIFLM LAUNCHES ISSUE NO 5. OF ITS ANNUAL PUBLICATION FOCUSSING ON THE WOMEN WORKING ACROSS FILM & TV TO BRING BIG BUDGET PRODUCTIONS TO LIFE IN AUSTRALIA.

WHAT’S IN ISSUE #5?

WOMEN BEHIND THE SCENES: MAKING IT IN AUSTRALIA
Gender parity has become a hot-button issue globally in the film and television industry and the women profiled in The Women’s Issue no. 5, have all forged long and successful careers, both in Australia and internationally, and their expertise in production and production management and can-do work ethic has helped establish Australia as a go-to destination for major filmmakers and helped build the stellar reputation of Australian producers, crews, creatives and filmmakers.

While the work these women, and the men they do business with, has been all about building and nurturing relationships around the world, the Australian production sector is joining the worldwide momentum in developing the skills of our next generation of female filmmakers, technicians, executives and creatives.

In addition, Ausfilm is very proud to celebrate and promote to our international filmmaking colleagues, the outstanding initiatives by Australia’s federal and state screen agencies and Ausfilm member businesses, that remove barriers for female screen practitioners and encourage diversity in front of and behind the camera.
