Create Nsw will now offer a 10 per cent tax incentive for post, digital and visual effects (Pdv) that can be combined with the 30 per cent federal Pdv offset, bringing the state’s offering in line with South Australia and Queensland.
The introduction of the incentive, which will require a minimum spend of $500,000 on Pdv in Nsw, has secured the state post-production on the upcoming Untitled Baz Luhrmann Elvis Project, with the government anticipating a $35 million boost to the economy as a result.
The South Australia Film Corporation (Safc) launched an uncapped, non-discretionary 10 per cent Pdv rebate in December 2017. Just two months after the rebate was unveiled, Technicolor announced it was to open a $26 million VFX studio, Mill Film, in Adelaide, and the Adelaide-based Rising Sun Pictures has looked to expand its staff numbers.

Remember that one year (2001) when the list-happy AFI (American Film Institute) decided to compete with the Globes and the Oscars in year end prizes? No, that didn't last long. But there's another AFI, The Australian Film Institute, that has been around for a long time and is in no such danger of being a one-off. This year, they're all about the amazing family crime drama Animal Kingdom which they awarded with a record breaking 18 nominations. Sure, the film is in danger of being way overhyped for people who are coming to it late (which is just about everyone given the sorry state of international distribution for dramas of virtually any kind) but for those who can slough off the "omg" raves, I guarantee you'll think it at least an insinuating and well executed crime drama.
