Screen Australia has partnered with Los Angeles-based television production company Dynamic Television, known for Ginny & Georgia and Savage River, for a new program to fund the development of up to four scripted television projects.
The Dynamic Television Scripted Initiative will focus on serial and procedural dramas, including innovative, high-concept ideas, memorable characters, and emotional narratives that target mainstream audiences.
Applicants are invited to propose projects with a total development budget of up to $100,000 with Screen Australia and Dynamic Television each contributing 50 per cent of the funds. Selected projects from each of the four rounds will benefit from Dynamic Television’s option for financing and distribution, under terms to be mutually agreed upon.
Screen Australia COO Grainne Brunsdon said the initiative represented a significant opportunity for Australian stories to captivate audiences globally.
