Screen Australia has posted an update on COVID-19 after a teleconference with other agencies to create a national picture.

Aside from travel, Screen Australia is processing applications as normal. In addition, ‘Any Screen Australia-funded production that is experiencing delays should reach out to their Investment Manager, or call 1800 213 099 or email info@screenaustralia.gov.au to be directed to the appropriate contact. We will of course be flexible wherever possible to support your production.’
