Draft Program Guidelines

Screen Australia has released draft guidelines covering development support, production financing and Indigenous programs.

The new programs have built on the principles articulated in the draft Statement of Intent and incorporate input and feedback received during previous consultation.

It is proposed that the new development and production support programs commence from 1 January 2009. 

Please note that these draft guidelines only cover Screen Australia's development and production support programs at this stage. Revised marketing support measures, as well as the various mechanisms necessary to support delivery of the new programs, will be progressively implemented in early 2009.
