The new Film Victoria games and digital content team share their thoughts about funding, and speak to the future of the local industry.
Film Victoria Games Team, Paul Callaghan and Lise Leitner

In 2021, Film Victoria appointed two new faces to its Games and Digital Content team to oversee the organisation’s distribution of grants for the development and production of games projects in the state of Victoria: Paul Callaghan and Lise Leitner.

With Leitner and Callaghan on board, Film Victoria looks to continue supporting the Victorian development scene in what is sure to be a pivotal year for the Australian games industry. The upcoming federal tax rebate, as well as the increased initiatives from states all around the country, is likely to accelerate the growth of studios and the quantity of games projects Australia produces.
