Applications now open for First Nations Documentary Workshop in Renmark
Country Arts SA is proud to support First Nations filmmaking. As part of our commitment, we will run a three-day workshop focusing on project development and production within documentary filmmaking.
This workshop is open to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are emerging documentary filmmakers and will focus on developing the skill set and knowledge of scriptwriting and the development of a short documentary project.
The intended development outcome for participants will be a completed logline, synopsis, script and a pitch video for their project.
One project will be selected for production in early 2024 which will premiere at Nunga Screen 2024 in May, commissioned by Country Arts SA.
The incubator will be facilitated by filmmaker Josh Trevorrow and Producer Dominic Guerrera, with guest presentations from Aboriginal filmmakers.
Who can apply:
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander applicants
- 18 years and older
- Emerging documentary filmmakers
- Living in South Australia
