MetroScreen 2020 Summit
at Open Day 2008
In April, the federal government hosted a summit with the aim of generating ideas from Australia’s greatest minds about how to move forward in the 21st century.
Metro Screen is bringing it local, focussing on the arts and asking you – some of the greatest minds of our filmmaking community – to bring your ideas and goals for Australia’s screen industry.
In Canberra, the group focussing on leading us ‘Towards a Creative Australia’ came up with a few key themes which we will be expanding on during a 1-hour panel discussion and open debate. Drawing on the wealth of experience available in the Metro community, we will discover what the recommendations mean to us; points at which we conflict or concur with the government’s summit results and ways we can participate in our rapidly progressing screen culture.
Participants will hear expert views and share their own suggestions for the future of the screen industry in Australia.
June 14th, arrive at 11am, Metro Screen.
