  • What Killed Australian Cinema & Why Is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving?
    What Killed Australian Cinema & Why is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving? A Thesis Submitted By Jacob Zvi for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Faculty of Health, Arts & Design, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne © Jacob Zvi 2019 Swinburne University of Technology All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. II Abstract In 2004, annual Australian viewership of Australian cinema, regularly averaging below 5%, reached an all-time low of 1.3%. Considering Australia ranks among the top nations in both screens and cinema attendance per capita, and that Australians’ biggest cultural consumption is screen products and multi-media equipment, suggests that Australians love cinema, but refrain from watching their own. Why? During its golden period, 1970-1988, Australian cinema was operating under combined private and government investment, and responsible for critical and commercial successes. However, over the past thirty years, 1988-2018, due to the detrimental role of government film agencies played in binding Australian cinema to government funding, Australian films are perceived as under-developed, low budget, and depressing. Out of hundreds of films produced, and investment of billions of dollars, only a dozen managed to recoup their budget. The thesis demonstrates how ‘Australian national cinema’ discourse helped funding bodies consolidate their power. Australian filmmaking is defined by three ongoing and unresolved frictions: one external and two internal. Friction I debates Australian cinema vs. Australian audience, rejecting Australian cinema’s output, resulting in Frictions II and III, which respectively debate two industry questions: what content is produced? arthouse vs.

  • Crowdfunding and Independent Screen Content Production in Australia
    Crowdfunding and Independent Screen Content Production in Australia A direct economic relationship between producer and audience Rebecca Laycock B.A.Com. and BMedia (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) School of Media, Entertainment and Creative Arts Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology 2015 Keywords Crowdfunding, crowdsourcing, digital distribution, film finance, government funding, independent film, screen content, Screen Australia 2 Abstract Crowdfunding is a new form of film finance that emerged in Australia in 2010 and is being used by independent screen content producers to raise finance for short film, documentary, television program, short animation and even feature-length production. This trend is seeing Australian independent content producers bypass traditional sources of finance by working with a model for finance that is outside, or perhaps alongside, traditional forms of film financing in Australia. In some cases, filmmakers are no longer solely waiting for government funding to green-light a project, they are initiating funds prior, during and after production to guarantee their film is produced. Independent screen content producers are also establishing a direct economic relationship between producer and audience and in so doing are simultaneously establishing a niche audience for their content. Crowdfunding is to an extent becoming a necessity, especially within a decreased national funding arts environment. However, to date there has been limited in-depth academic analysis of crowdfunding as a source of production finance for independent Australian screen content production, particularly in terms of government action, industry trends, and what areas of the broader screen industry are receiving crowdfunding.
