Description

Unscripted television is no longer confined to a single screen or a linear broadcast moment. This panel explores how Australia’s biggest unscripted formats are being designed, produced and launched as multi‑platform ecosystem, reaching audiences wherever they watch, scroll, engage and participate. We unpack how unscripted content is evolving across broadcast, streaming, social and digital platforms. The discussion will examine commissioning strategies, audience engagement beyond the episode, platform partnerships, and how data, formats and talent are adapting to a fragmented viewing landscape. 

This session offers a practical look at how unscripted content can scale, travel and thrive in a multi‑platform world.

Produced by Lisa Squillace, Kylie Washington and Caroline Swift
