Our State has a strong history of producing top level screen talent, but we know that WA has so much more to offer for film and TV production.
There's no shortage of unique and beautiful backdrops, and they've already made a few big screen appearances - but the one thing we don't have is a world-class studio in our State.
So we've put the call out for proposals to build, locate and operate a screen production facility right here in Western Australia.
We've already had several unsolicited proposals to develop screen and studio facilities in WA, but this formal process will help to get it underway and deliver the facilities we need.
Specifically, we're looking for a proposal within 20kms of the Perth CBD that would include:
π¬ a big sound stage between 2,323-3,716 square metres
π₯ two or three smaller sound stages of at least 929 square metres
π’ production offices of around 1,000 square metres
π¨ two construction workshops of at least 675 square metres each
πββοΈ costume, laundry, makeup and hair facilities
π lock-up storage and at least 3,000 square metres of parking
This is part of our Market-led Proposal program, and would be a huge boost for our local screen industry.
