Attending the SPA Online Town Hall – Advocating for Australian Stories on Screen 🎬🇦🇺
Today, I joined the Screen Producers Australia (SPA) Online Town Hall alongside fellow screen practitioners to discuss the urgent need for streaming platform regulation and to ensure that Australian stories remain on Australian screens.
With over 400 practitioners united from across the country, we shared updates from grassroots advocacy efforts, explored strategies for engaging MPs, and reinforced our collective call for legislative action this year.
The loss of more than $1 billion in production budgets and an estimated 15,000 screen jobs underscores the stakes. This is not just about policy — it’s about protecting the sustainability, diversity, and cultural impact of our industry.
Proud to stand with the Australian Guild of Screen Composers and the wider screen community in this movement. The time for discussion has passed — now, we need action.
