Ten partners with Screen Australia to launch ‘Out Here’ initiative for LGBTQI+ awareness
Ten has partnered with Screen Australia to launch Out Here, an initiative which provides grants to produce documentaries focused on LGBTQI+ diversity in rural and regional communities.
The initiative encourages storytellers to apply for one of three grants up to $80,000 to help develop projects around being LGBTQI+ in country towns. The successful documentaries will then be broadcast on Ten ’s digital streaming platform 10 Play.
Beverley McGarvey, Ten’s chief content officer, said the network is focused on fostering and creating pathways for production talent across the country.
