Fremantle Australia’s Post

Thank you for everything this year. Wishing you a connected, creative 2024. #MadeByFremantle

Congratulations to Neighbours' actor Costa D'Angelo featured among the Casting Guild of Australia's twelve Rising Stars for 2023, a well deserved accolade particularly for his work on Ramsay Street as Eden Shaw. Also cheers to Ben Turland, a past favourite on Neighbours and more recently on Fremantle's Riptide.

Congratulations to Neighbours cast member Georgie Stone, OAM, recipient of the inaugural City of Melbourne's Young Melburnian of the Year for her on-going advocacy work with trans and gender diverse children and youth.

Fremantle is delighted to welcome Bus Stop Films’ two successful candidates from its Employment program- Rhys Ballis and Charlotte Best – to the Neighbours Training Program, the largest training enterprise for a single production in Australia. Fully-funded by VicScreen, it provides unique fully-paid training opportunities across a spectrum of above and below the line production specialties. Partnering with Bus Stop Films opens opportunities for emerging creatives with disabilities to gain invaluable knowledge in a culturally safe environment.

ABC SHOW LOOKING FOR PARTICIPANTS Tony Armstrong has a brand-new show and he needs you… and your objects! It’s called Tony Armstrong’s Extra-Ordinary Things, and it’s a 5-part documentary series for the ABC that follows Tony as he goes on the road to learn about the untold history of Australia whilst meeting some everyday Aussies with extraordinary stories. You might have a piece of clothing or jewellery with an amazing story attached. A quirky item that represents a pivotal moment in your life. Or maybe you have a beloved heirloom that’s in need of restoration? Nothing is too big or too small. If it has an abundant sense of connection, then please apply here: www.extraordinarythings.au
