[csaa-forum] SSSN Roundtable: The Emerging Gap: From Student to Filmmaker with Klara Bruveris

Mon Apr 4 10:29:00 ACST 2016

The Emerging Gap: From Student to Filmmaker
Tuesday 5th April, 6 - 8pm (please note the later start time)Room 327,
Robert Webster Building, UNSW

In late 2015 Metro Screen revealed the findings of its commissioned
research project ‘Emerging Visions: Career Pathways in the Australian
Screen Production Industry’.  The study showed that screen output in
Australia is mostly produced by established and mid-career practitioners,
practitioners who benefitted from career development opportunities that
current emerging practitioners are no longer offered. There has been an
increase in enrolment in screen studies, but a decrease in support
mechanisms that could help new graduates enter the industry and establish
their careers. This has raised concerns about the future of the Australian
screen industry. If we do not nurture emerging talent, who will make our
stories in the future?

This panel continues the discussion begun by the ‘Emerging Visions’ report.
Five UNSW graduates and emerging industry practitioners return to share
their experiences of joining the screen industry. What support have they
received as emerging practitioners? Have they experienced any
discrimination? Did UNSW provide them with the skills to pursue a career in
filmmaking? What does this report mean to them? We will also begin to tease
out a response to the questions brought up by the findings of the report.
For example: what equitable structures and pathways can we create to help
young talent move forward? How can the education sector, production sector
and funding bodies work together to help bridge the gap between formal
study and professional practice? And who is responsible for taking the lead?

*Klāra Brūveris* *(UNSW)*, an early career researcher in film studies, will
moderate the panel. Katie Amos, Noni Cowan, Pat McCoy, Jessie Hildebrand
and Nicole Douglas will be joining her. They all graduated from the film
studies program at UNSW in 2009/2010 and since then have pursued careers in
a number of areas related to the screen sector, including producing,
editing, and directing feature films, short films and television
shows. *klara.bruveris at live.com
