What we're looking for from Ready, Steady, Pitch!
Netflix is looking for long-form Scripted and Unscripted projects that are specific and uniquely Australian with an Aussie tone & sensibility. Consider your projects; why could this only be set in Australia and told from an Australian perspective. We’re looking for projects that are commercial, broad and at home on a bingeable, streaming service. Your project should display great clarity in it’s audience proposition - not just who the audience might be - but the why someone will care. A project that is right for Netflix should have a clear hook, purposiveness with strong and surprising story twists & turns.
