Wide Angle Tasmania is an independent, for-purpose, not-for-profit organisation that has encouraged, developed and supported the Tasmanian screen sector since 2003. Operating statewide, Wide Angle's vision is a vibrant, diverse and renewable Tasmanian screen culture. This culture is characterised by the production of screen works that express the stories, talent and perspectives of Tasmanians and a screen community that is regularly replenished by the inclusion of new practitioners, new ideas and new approaches to production.Wide Angle Tasmania bridges the fluid space where our services are used for education, employment and creative expression. We recognise that the screen sector is in a state of disruption and that traditional educational and employment pathways do not fit all people. Our programmes are designed to provide alternative pathways for our community, and result in innovative and enterprising outcomes for participants.Wide Angle Tasmania:• Delivers programmes and services statewide that encourage, develop and support Tasmanian screen practitioners• Supports the creation of new Tasmanian screen works• Connects audiences to Tasmanian screen works• Operates the Wide Angle Screen Centre in South Hobart – a dynamic space for the screen community that includes a 70 seat cinema/production studio, office space, screening and meeting rooms and entertainment facilities• Offers the only full equipment hire service in Tasmania and waives approximately $20,000 in equipment hire income to support the creation of new screen works• Functions with less than 2 FTE staff, contracting 20+ industry members as mentors and tutors annually• Benefits from the efforts of 250 volunteers each year• Reaches 1,100 subscribers through our monthly newsletter, 6,300+ people via social media connections and 30,000+ annual webpage views• Advocates at a State and Federal level for the Tasmanian screen sector and support for emerging filmmakers
