South Australians set to pitch to TV execs
South Australia’s TV Minilab has announced the five finalists who will pitch their projects to TV networks in Sydney next week.
The finalists are producer Melissa Sheldrick, writer Ryder Grindle, writer/directors Alexis West and Matt Vesely, and the producer/writer team of Caroline Man and Ruth Estelle.
The projects were selected by a panel including Kris Noble, Sue masters and TV Minilab mentor Gus Howard.
The inaugural TV Minilab brought together 28 creatives for a four-week intensive program, including masterclasses with Gus Howard, Ric Pellizzeri, Des Monaghan, Tony Morphett, Tim Ferguson and Lisa McCune. The initiative forms part of a major focus on attracting and building television production in South Australia.
