Twelve teams of emerging creatives from under-represented backgrounds will have the chance to pitch their drama projects to SBS, NITV, and Screen Australia as part of this year's Digital Originals initiative, with a week-long workshop for the first round of selected applicants commencing this week.
NITV has made two new appointments to its leadership team, with Marissa McDowell and Rhanna Collins promoted to head of commissions and head of business and operations, respectively.
A mobile coffee van that has its momentum halted by a space alien and a trans comedian who must navigate the pitfalls of viral fame are among the subjects covered by the projects in the first round of Digital Originals for 2023.
