Screen Australia's Indigenous Department is calling on Indigenous filmmakers, online content creators and vloggers from across Australia to apply for the second round of the [Black Space] Web Series Initiative, which will fund creative teams to produce their own online series.

Two producers. One from French production and distribution company Rockzeline and the other an experienced Australian all-rounder. Both break down their advice about taking original online content global.

Producer Charlotte Seymour dove into the world of web series for the first time with Other People’s Problems.

When Rockzeline formed in 2012, it was as a distributor of online content. They sold projects such as Australian web series The Wizards of Aus to Canal Plus, and helped set up the digital offer of public broadcaster France Télévisions. But in recent years, they’ve expanded into developing and creating their own original productions.

Superwog’s Theo Saidden on co-writing/directing/producing and co-starring in the duo’s TV pilot and why they will always try to make YouTube videos, no matter what.

Princess Pictures producer Paul Walton on helping online content creators such as Superwog develop their voice and why it’s imperative the industry continues to invest in this space.

For creators of digital content on platforms such as YouTube, a high level of multitasking is required as a channel or series grows in popularity and views.

The number of people watching film, TV and other content online is growing exponentially. Data shows that 63% of Australians gobbled up stories this way in 2016*.

So what is the cost of creating an online series or video?
