Short Story Long: From Shorts to Features

60 mins
This year, the Festival welcomes back a number of Dendy alumni with new feature films, alongside works emerging from short film initiatives supported by Screen NSW and Screen Australia’s First Nations Department.

This panel brings together filmmakers and key industry partners to explore the journey from short to feature filmmaking—examining the creative, practical and institutional support that enables this transition, and the realities of taking that next step.
