Big Screen Symposium reposted this
Still reeling from the connections and insights we gained in Auckland for the annual Big Screen Symposium! HUGE thanks to Script to Screen for making it happen! ✍ 📺 🗣 It was an inspiring couple of days with incredible speakers such as Lulu Wang, Cliff Curtis, Robyn Malcolm, James Napier Robertson, and Pax Assadi to name just a few! Delegates were able to meet with producers, directors, writers, and digital content creators to discuss ways filmmakers can receive support for production activities. 🎤On Day two, a panel spoke about ‘coopetition’ - the ways we work together for the benefit of our own regions as well as ‘NZ Inc.’ Facilitated by Jaclyn Philpott (AFCI), the panel included some of the Regional Film Office New Zealand including Petrina D’Rozario (Screen CanterburyNZ), Mark Westerby (Screen Wellington), Kahli Scott (Film Queenstown Lakes) and Jade Kent (Film Bay of Plenty). And the key takeaway? COLLBORATION 🤝 Aotearoa makes world-class screen content and we consistently punch above our weight in innovation, technical ability, and stunning locations. Sharing knowledge and resources works to make New Zealand more attractive as a film destination, which ultimately benefits us all.
