As part of this year’s “Australian Malaysian Film Festival” held at ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image), there will be a filmmaker’s forum on Friday, August 15 from 2.00pm till 5.30pm.

The objectives of such a forum is to explore film and media bilateral ties through discussion of industry issues, as well as information exchange of professional practices. Even more substantially it is a stage to develop potential project collaboration and business models. This could be the start of something big!
Guest speakers for the forum will include:
Mr. Mahyidin Mustakim, Director General of FINAS (Malaysia’s national film body), Professor Ian Lang, the Head of Film and Television for the Victorian College of the Arts and Julie Marlow, the consultant for Trade, Policy, International Relations and Co Productions for the Screen Producers Association of Australia.
This year’s event extends even further into the Arts with an exhibition of Malaysian batik design and fashion.
