Alex Sangston has headed up Screen Tasmania since 2016; joining the team just in time for the releases of ‘Lion’, ‘The Kettering Incident’ and ‘Rosehaven’, which lasted 5 seasons. Tasmanian screen production is growing significantly in scope, scale and capacity and is now able to host projects such as Netflix’s ‘The Survivors’, Amazon’s ‘Deadloch’ and two seasons of ‘Bay of Fires’ for the ABC and ‘Alone’ for SBS. Before moving back to Tassie (as a born and bred Tasmanian), Alex was at Screen Australia, running the Producer Offset and Co-production Unit from the agency’s inception in July 2008. Alex has also worked at the Commonwealth Arts Department in Canberra on international screen production policy, and in broadcasting and online content policy.
