The yearly Ones to Watch cohort has become a who’s who of the up and comers in the screen industry. Since its inception in 2013 (initially as part of SPA Fringe), Ones To Watch has hothoused and networked the talent of more than 120 emerging Australian producers from all states, and across platforms and formats.
