From music video and short film directors, to specialised events and the festivals that focus on emerging talent, we’ve compiled a list of the names to watch and the places to go to see Melbourne’s best work on the silver screen.

Well put together, Brodie! Great post.
Epic post Brodie, has my special favorites Gen Bailie and Krozm in there. What city is next?
Incredible.
Great story Brodie, well done
Check out Venezuelan-made film Brother (Hermano) during the Spanish Film Festival, written by Melbourne’s Rohan Jones… won first prize at the Moscow Film Festival, it’s being screened at Cannes this year and it’s shortlisted for the Foreign Film Academy Award… it’s amazing to say the least!
