Executives from Paramount, Amazon and the ABC will share their commissioning priorities at Screenworks Regional to Global Screen Forum later this month, alongside those previously announced from Stan, Netflix and SBS.
The ABC is the new broadcast partner for lifestyle program 'Grand Designs Australia', with future series to premiere exclusively across ABC iview and ABC TV.
Netflix executive Susie Jones has followed the streamer's former head of physical production Chris Oliver-Taylor over to the ABC, with the broadcaster also welcoming Stan senior commissioning editor Rachel Okine.
Producer Rachel Millar has stepped into the role of ABC head of entertainment, after holding the position in an interim capacity.
