ACMI: Your Museum of Screen Culture

Explore how local screen industries and audience habits have changed over the last decade, in this all-day symposium. ​
It has been nearly 10 years since streaming arrived in Australia, with Netflix launching on our shores in March 2015. Presented in partnership with RMIT, this symposium reflects on how a decade of streaming in Australia has changed the local screen entertainment landscape.

This all-day event brings together screen industry creatives and academic experts to illuminate the deeper implications, opportunities and challenges of the streaming era. Across roundtable discussion panels, talks and a screening designed to catalyse conversation, we will look forward as well as back to consider how we can future-proof our local screen industries in an increasingly global marketplace.

As well as mapping how industry and policy developments have impacted creatives, distributors, and the types of content produced by Australian screen industries, the symposium shines a spotlight on audiences to chart how our own behaviour and habits have shifted in the era of on-demand streamed screen entertainment.
