Northern Territory Screen Industry Visioning Project

In November 2008 the Northern Territory Film Office (NTFO) commenced a visioning and strategic planning process, working with screen media professionals and associated industries and individuals to develop a long term plan towards sustainability with creative and commercial success.

The outcome will be clarification of the screen industry vision for 2009 – 2015 and the potential leadership role of the NTFO within this context.

A steering committee was established to guide and oversee the process. Doug Macnamara, an international consultant in screen media, from the International Institute for Television Leadership, Banff, Canada, was appointed to work with the committee and the NTFO.

The visioning project was divided into three phases:

1. Phase One
   Scoping and scan of the national and international context and capability of the Northern Territory industry, as well as suggestions for potential directions and priorities for the industry.
2. Phase Two
   Based on the information gathered in the first phase, as well as feedback, recommended strategic directions were presented to the steering committee.
3. Phase Three
   Development of a five year strategic framework.
   Phase Three is currently underway.
