Scripted Ink Head of Development Tim Pye discusses being an Australian screenwriter in 2019 – why writers need to think internationally, practical tips for those starting out, and the pros and cons of SVODs.
Pye explains how the showrunner of NCIS: LA Shane Brennan is helping change and educate the local industry, how he believes the term ‘showrunner’ in Australia differs to the US, and even breaks down the difference between a ‘story by’ and ‘written by’ credit.
Pye also demystifies the three organisations working behind the scenes to help – the Australian Writers’ Guild, the Authorship Collecting Society AWGACS, and Scripted Ink.
