Film Victoria CEO Caroline Pitcher is committed to growing the state's screen sector next financial year but, longer-term, she worries about the sustainability of production.
Despite COVID-19, SBS director of TV and online content Marshall Heald says the broadcaster is still commissioning and developing local content, and pursuing initiatives with Screen Queensland, Film Victoria and Screen Australia.
The hardest part about the coronavirus pandemic for Goalpost Pictures was having to make one staffer redundant and stand down another, who was subsequently was reinstated thanks to the JobKeeper wage subsidy.
Goalpost Pictures partners Rosemary Blight, Ben Grant and Kylie du Fresne are busily progressing projects in development with local and international partners and are confident the cinema business will rebound after the pandemic.
