NCIS Fellow is Neighbours scripwriter

[Release by Film Victoria]

Film Victoria has announced its first International Fellowship as screenwriter David Hannam. Hannam won the opportunity to observe the development of hit US television series NCIS, and will head to Los Angeles later this month where he will shadow ex-pat Victorian Shane Brennan (Stingers, The Flying Doctors): a team writer with NCIS who has written nine and executive-produced 24 episodes of NCIS since 2006.

Hannam will participate in production meetings, sit in on table readings, observe the production of episodes on-set and watch how the director’s cut, mixing session and casting sessions take place.

With more than 14 years industry experience, Hannam has worked on some of Australia’s most popular dramas such as Neighbours, All Saints and Stingers as a writer, script editor and story producer.
