Screen Australia announces new documentary funding round
A four-part SBS series leads a new round of Screen Australia funding for documentaries.
The announcement of funding is worth $1.8m across six one off documentaries and one series, and is expected to trigger $4.8m worth of production.
Following on from SBS’s four part series Once Upon a Time in Cabramatta, which aired earlier this year and took 0.850m viewers across SBS1 in English, and SBS 2 in Vietnamese will be Once Upon A Time in Punchbowl.
The series will examine the Lebanese migrant settlement in Western Sydney and produced by Tim Toni and executive produced by Sue Clothier.
I am the filmmaker of the above mentioned documentary The Sunnyboy. The blurb above is inaccurate and misleading and I would like it amended as soon as possible. Could you please replace it with the following description;
Commissioned by the ABC, The Sunnyboy is a documentary by director/DOP Kaye Harrison and producer Tom Zubrycki about Jeremy Oxley, front man of the 80’s band the Sunnyboys , his 30 year battle with schizophrenia, his struggle for recovery and his triumphant return to the stage.
Could you please confirm that this has been altered.
Regards,
Kaye Harrison
