7th Asia Pacific Screen Forum
The Forum serves as a vital platform for dynamic conversations exploring the challenges, opportunities, and emerging trends shaping the Asia Pacific film industry. More than just discussion, the Forum empowers filmmakers with practical tools and specific knowledge to greenlight their own projects and forge meaningful collaborations across the region. Come with a project, leave with a pathway. They encourage filmmakers to attend with a film or screen project in development, as their stackable learning experiences are designed to transform your concept into a viable production plan. Through territory-specific insights into funding landscapes, cultural competency for cross-border partnerships, and innovative financing models that move beyond traditional co-productions, participants develop concrete strategies tailored to their specific projects. The Forum positions Queensland and Australian filmmakers to actively engage with this vibrant sector by providing direct access to international producers, screen agencies, and industry decision-makers from across the Asia Pacific. By the end of the event, attendees will have identified potential collaborators, mapped funding pathways, and gained the cultural intelligence needed to navigate international partnerships—leaving excited and empowered that their film project will become a reality. By combining cultural intelligence with business acumen, the Forum transforms conversations into connections, ideas into partnerships, and projects into productions—creating tangible pathways for sustained creative collaboration across borders.
