Australian International Screen Foundation Inc

The organization is formed for the charitable and educational purposes of promoting the arts, helping filmmakers expand their film-making skills, educating filmmakers and the public on topics related to filmmaking, and promoting us-australian relations.

Our mission is to promote the screen arts by exhibiting australian films and connecting australian film, television and digital screen producers and screen talent to u.s. Film, television and digital producers and distributors in order to achieve broader exhibition of their screen works. We also promote the screen arts through australian short film today where we showcase the work of australian short filmmakers in the united states, the united kingdom, france and germany to broaden the exposure of the filmmakers. It is also our mission to provide educational and career development programs for new and emerging screen artists. We do this through case studies, master classes and conversations, sessions on financing, casting and pitching, and networking opportunities and mentoring with esablished practitioners of the screen arts. We have also established a scholarship program for emerging directors.
