Elissa Down and Nash Edgerton are amongst finalists for the 2008 ADG Awards that provides the highest accolade to outstanding Australian directing talent by their peers.
The NSW Film and Television Office (FTO) has welcomed the news that one of Australia's most important screen industry events - the Australian Director's Guild Conference and annual Awards - will be in Sydney.
The debut feature from Sydney paramedic-turned-director Benjamin Gilmour has had a strong start at the box office, taking almost $20,000 on just six screens over the weekend.
The Sydney Film Festival announces its inaugural official competition lineup, with Edgerton's The Square among the 12 finalists.
Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee has returned to his darker musical roots to record the original soundtrack for The Square, which he wrapped recording in time for the film?s trailer to be cut and released online this week.
