Screen NSW & Metro Screen launch new Emerging Producer Placement Program
Metro Screen and Screen NSW have announced a new scheme aimed at NSW producers looking to advance their careers – the Emerging Producer Placement (EPP) program.
Targeted at emerging producers with a track record in short form content, the EPP will provide producers with a unique opportunity to gain experience with some of Australia’s most respected production companies, in addition to working with the Production and Development team at Screen NSW.
Two candidates will be selected and paid to undertake a six month customised program. They will spend the majority of the time with production companies, with additional time at Screen NSW and attending key industry events. They will also work with a consultant to plan their career pathway. [read more]
