About this workshop
Screen Queensland, in partnership with Screenworks, is proud to present the Production Portal’s introductory workshop, Inside the Production Office.
The productions office is the engine rooms of any film or television series. In this workshop, delivered by industry professional Chantelle Mercieca, you’ll learn:
- The A-Z of screen production
- The various roles and responsibilities of a production office, and
- How to transfer your existing project management skills to become an invaluable member of the team.
The workshop also explores wellness tools and strategies to help you thrive in the fast-paced world of filmmaking.
You’ll gain practical tips on how to enter the screen industry and steps for success once you get your first break.
With the new Screen Queensland Studios, Cairns development underway, now is the perfect time to build your skill set to take advantage of new job opportunities in the Far North Queensland screen industry.
