a tv industry forum (i'm not an insider yet)

in my time in melbourne, film victoria have put on some fabulous seminars for practitioners and emerging film-makers/ writers alike. yesterday's offering connect with subscription tv included 200 attendees, 17 speakers, 5 panel sessions and a networking session. so all in all a pretty useful event for the low cost (including lunch and snacks) of $25. met some interesting people, had a laugh, almost a snooze and kind of felt like i almost belonged.

it seemed mostly a foxtel plug but there were some interesting speakers, though not all stations commission local content and are seem unlikely to in the future. but it gets one thinking at least. options are always good.
