Finding future families
ABC TV Factual is calling for one-off documentary ideas to form a season on the ‘Family, and the Future of Family in Australia’ for ABC1.
“We’re looking to create a season for filmmakers who have something powerful and important to say, and we’re looking for a range of styles and voices that will engage a prime-time audience on ABC1 and really get people talking,” ABC TV head of Factual, Phil Craig, said.
The subject is deliberately broad and critical to the assessment criteria will be the strength of the central idea, and the creative approach for bringing it alive for the Australian prime-time audience.
ABC Factual will welcome concept pitches of approximately 2-3 pages, including a short statement about the online potential of the idea.
