Screenability NSW

Screenability NSW, a new program to create opportunities in the screen industries for people with disabilities.

Screenability NSW is a unique partnership between Screen NSW, Ai-Media, AFTRS, Carriageworks and Bus Stop Films. It will activate a program of initiatives that will deliver on an open-ended policy commitment by Screen NSW to work with industry to grow participation in the screen sector by Australians with disabilities.

Upcoming Screenability NSW activities include:

+ An annual film festival at Carriageworks
+ A short film-making initiative to finance and deliver films for premiere at the festival, for travelling around Australia and the world, and for screening online
+ A long-term job placement scheme

But it kicks off with the Screenability NSW Internship Program, a series of up to eight paid internships on some of Australia’s most-watched “event” TV shows and highly-anticipated feature films, working with Australia’s leading production companies, broadcasters and streaming services.
