SCREEN FOREVER / SPA Connect / Domestic Market / Pitch On Demand

ABOUT

Following the success of the inaugural SPA Pitch on Demand initiative, we welcome SBS and ABC to take part in Pitch On Demand @ SF36. The specific SBS Commissioner Brief will focus on Scripted while the ABC are seeking pitches for Children’s content.

With its tailored and targeted approach, Pitch On Demand @ SF36 will fast-track opportunities for SBS and the ABC to source authentic, impactful, and meaningful local scripted and children’s content from Australian producers. By giving the commissioners more control over who they meet with at SPA Connect, we aim to increase the number of pitches that turn into partnerships.
