Former Adelaide Film Festival operations manager Sarah Lancaster has joined not-for-profit screen organisation The Mercury as general manager, taking over from Lisa Bishop who held the role in an interim capacity.
The Mercury, formerly Mercury CX, is set to run weekly writing consultations for filmmakers who have draft scripts and story ideas.
South Australian not-for-profit screen organisation Mercury CX will introduce a monthly subscription model as part of a new business plan unveiled at its annual general meeting this week.
South Australia's Mercury CX has undergone an overhaul of its operations in an attempt to remain solvent, with a new board restructuring its model to reduce overheads and engaging an interim general manager to replace outgoing CEO, Karena Slaninka.
