The discussion will delve into the development process from genesis to production, and how to find and make a story that will work both for the local network and for the international market.
Helen will draw on her breadth of experience as a producer including her latest Australian 6 part mini series Devil’s Playground, tele-feature Underground following Assange’s early life and Emmy-nominated eight-part drama series The Slap (2011).
Stay afterward for a slice of pizza on us and a drink.
