Message from the ADG

I'd like to say congratulations to all for a most successful conference, informal feedback has been very strong about the quality of speakers, the topics covered and the friendliness of the staff in dealing with all the delegates.

- Ray Argall, President of the Australian Directors Guild

 

Message from the Conference Chair

A very big thanks to our ADG Conference guest speakers who made time to share the intimate details of their directing process. And to our delegates who gathered in Adelaide to engage with our program. We, at ADG, hope the chemistry created during those three days will trickle into the 'uber' culture of Directors in this country. We hope you went home inspired.

- Kay Pavlou, Conference Committee Chair

 

 

 

 

ABOUT
Australian Directors Guild conference was held from Sunday 27 February to Tuesday 1 March 2011 in Adelaide, South Australia.

 

Held in collaboration with the Bigpond Adelaide Film festival (BAFF) and Australian International Documentary Conference (AIDC), the ADG offered 3 days of masterclasses, workshops and seminars.

 

Aimed at mid-career directors as well as newcomers, delegates were given a rare opportunity to extend and advance their professional development from highly esteemed directors – both international and Australian.

 

Days one and two were dedicated to drama and narrative in the digital realm. Docudrama will be an additional strand on day three.

 

DRAMA – International and local directors will run masterclasses, with Actor/Director workshops sitting alongside 3D and the Action workshops.

 

DIGITAL - Workshops will explore digital tools, platforms, showing the benefits of digital culture to traditional filmmaking.

 

DOCUDRAMA - in conjunction with AIDC, the final day of the conference will feature docudrama. Documentary filmmakers will be shown dramatisation techniques to expand their storytelling and drama directors can learn about the the crossover of documentary strategies into drama directing.
