Screen Queensland (SQ) and SBS are delighted to announce the three teams that will go into production creating unscripted short-form content for SBS On Demand in 2019.

The three teams are:

3 x 5 minute episodes

Mary Duong (writer/producer), Rachel Anderson (writer/director)

A curious and playful look at growing up between two cultures in the Sunshine State, with particular focus on food and family, presented by two Australian-born Asian friends who are awkward, honest, and warm in equal parts.

(2) Monsters of Many Worlds 

3 x 5 minute episodes

Daniel Mulvihill (writer/producer), Madeleine Dyer (writer/director)

An online series about messed-up monster stories from around the world.

(3) Aunty Dawn Daylight 

​One 15 minute episode
