This initiative is part of Screen Queensland’s Far North Queensland Screen Production Strategic Plan. Delivered by Screenworks.


Pre-Event Workshop

Screen Queensland and Screenworks will present a half-day professional development workshop for twenty selected participants, based in Far North Queensland.

Led by industry professionals, the workshop will provide guidance and mentorship to help emerging to early-career practitioners kickstart their careers, learn how to network successfully and prepare to pitch at screen conferences.

This workshop will arm practitioners with skills to:

  • Clarify their professional direction and plan to get there
  • Stay well connected to the industry in person at conferences and meetings across the nation, or even online, from Far North Queensland
  • Focus on their personal development; practitioners will need to know who they are, what they’re good at and how to communicate that to the people who matter to reach your goal.
