The NSW Film and Television Office (FTO) has announced the latest recipients of its Young Filmmakers Fund and Digital Visual Effects Placement Scheme. The schemes are important to the professional development of emerging NSW filmmakers, including training in the increasingly important area of visual effects and post production.
Through its Digital Visual Effects Placement Scheme, the FTO puts young digital artists in several of the State’s world class post production companies. Most of the artists placed over the past several years have gone on to professional careers in the industry. Participants in the Scheme have worked on projects such as Happy Feet, Charlotte’s Web and Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix.
