Ahoy ,
Winter Down Under is a great time to get productive and it shows in the stories we have from our members this month. On the flip side, in the warmth of the Los Angeles sunshine, Ausfilm returned to our event circuit with our annual Partner With Australia event program for the first time since 2019. It was great to reconnect our members with the LA film and TV industry again, it felt like we had not hit pause on the last two years. It's great to be back! Be sure to check out our photo gallery from all the events below.
We've got some golden content this June issue, take a peek inside the musical mind of Victorian Sound Designer, Composer and First Nations man, James Henry in our First Nations Spotlight.
