Call for Entries: Talent USA: LA 2019

10 creators, directors & screenwriters will head to LA for a week of meetings, workshops & networking opportunities.

Screen Australia and the Australian Writer’s Guild are inviting entries for the third year of Talent USA: LA, a bespoke week-long program of curated meetings, workshops and networking opportunities for creators, directors and screenwriters.

Up to 10 participants will be selected to take part in the career development program which will take place in Los Angeles from 15-21 September, 2019.

The delegation will be led by Screen Australia’s Nerida Moore, Head of Development and Harry Avramidis, Manager International Initiatives.

Hannah and Eliza Reilly, who attended Talent USA: LA in 2018, said, “Talent LA was nothing short of a game changer for us. We came away with US mentorship, signed to a fantastic team at CAA and truly learned so much about the Australian and American industry.

“Screen Australia and the Australian Writer’s Guild planned a week jam packed full of amazing people and companies that we got to connect with and learn from; but probably the most worthwhile was being able to ally with our fellow Talent LA recipients, who were all leaders in their respective fields. Talent LA introduced us to Sarah Lambert and Yolanda Ramke, who we are now working with on a new Screen Australia funded drama series.”

The deadline for applications is 5pm AEST on Wednesday 3rd July 2019.
