ScreenWest yesterday launched the 2013 Tele-Navigator Development Program, aimed at supporting the development of television content in Western Australia.
The Program, presented in association with the Australian Writers Guild, is designed for projects which can be made in Western Australia.
Up to six television projects (television drama or comedy series, telemovies or miniseries) will be chosen to participate in the Tele-Navigator Conference Week held from 15-19 July.
Though projects at any stage of development are eligible for entry, the idea is for a team of industry professionals to work with early-stage ideas to develop them from the ground up.
Sue Taylor and Sue Masters have already been announced as two of the three producing mentors, with another three writing mentors to be revealed in coming weeks.
Writers, directors and producers are welcome to apply as individuals or as a team
The deadline for applications is 5:00pm Monday, 27 May 2013.
