The Natalie Miller Fellowship
In 2025, the Natalie Miller Fellowship is proud to expand our commitment by offering two annual fellowships, strengthening our investment in the future leaders who will shape and redefine the screen sector for years to come. We are seeking proposals for leadership and professional development that are not only innovative and tailored to each applicant’s unique vision, but that also contribute meaningfully to the broader Australian screen industry. Applications are strongly encouraged from professionals in traditional sectors (distribution, exhibition, production, post, financing, etc) along with emerging sectors (e.g., immersive media, digital content, gaming)
