Forum
The Queensland Screen Industry Council aims to convene an annual forum to bring the Queensland industry together to share experiences, viewpoints and to work together to advance the Queensland industry.
The first forum, held on the 1st of November 2008, explored developing sustainable businesses and building the skills base. It also considered the councils strategic plan.
Queensland Screen Industry Council's 3rd Annual Forum entitled "The Market Now" is being held on Saturday 28th August at The Glasshouse, QUT Creative Industries Precinct, Kelvin Grove. Program runs from 1.00-5.30pm, followed by drinks at the Normanby Hotel.
Sessions include
-
•Turning 360 Degrees: How to dip your toe into the transmedia environment;
-
•Beyond Messagestick: The Who What Where and When of Indigenous Markets;
-
•Markets in the Driving Seat: P plates for creatives.
Renowned for its stimulating debate and current thinking, the forum again will host a great lineup of local and interstate speakers. Entry is free. Coffee available for purchase from the Dancing Bean next door.
2008 Forum outcomes
The second forum, in August 2009, stimulated debate on reaching audiences and financing projects in the face of the GFC and reduced government investment.

Focus Groups
One outcome from the first forum was to hold occasional focus groups with council and key people or key subjects. The first of these, on distribution, was held in May 2009.
