SPAA signs alliance with China

The Screen Producers Association of Australia (SPAA) has formed the SPAA Australia-China Screen Alliance to facilitate co-productions between the two countries, providing advisory and introductory service to producers.

“In Xi’an alone they have over 300 film production companies, many of which are wanting to do co-production with Australia now. This is typical of the potential in the film-making industry that exists in provinces and regions around China,” said producer Mario Andreacchio, chair of the Alliance.

The Alliance will also assist  Australian producers to navigate through the Chinese bureaucratic and cultural processes.
