Minister for Innovation, Services and Small Business Louise Asher today announced a grant of $50,000 for Melbourne-based screen resource centre Open Channel, to assist with the upgrade of screen production equipment and support the training of young screen practitioners in Victoria.
Ms Asher said the Victorian Coalition Government was taking a proactive step to support the training of young practitioners, which is even more important in light of the recent closure of the Melbourne office of the Federal Government’s Australian Film Television and Radio School.
