We discuss the directorial process including the casting of actors, the rebirth of television as an important medium for telling stories, similarities between the Quebec/Canada and Australian film industries, the narcissism of actors, how cultural products (including films) are fossils of the human mind (as covered in my works), and product placements in movies among other topics.

And remember to subscribe and share. Australia is rushing towards a filmmaking crisis due to the paucity of locally-produced shows on which up-and-coming writers, directors and other key creatives can develop their skills. So says acclaimed producer Tony Ayres, whose hit shows include Glitch, Stateless, The Slap, Barracuda, Seven Types of Ambiguity and Clickbait.  In this episode, Ayres discusses the skills shortage he expects to hit in about five years time, along with the high and low points of his own career and life, with senior culture writer Karl Quinn. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The fires of 2019 and 2020 were shocking in their intensity. They destroyed forests and homes, threatened communities and blanketed entire states in smoke. Fires is a new drama series that takes us into the blazes of that summer and the lives impacted by them, finding human stories of loss, community and resilience. In the Drawing Room, co-creator Tony Ayres talks about the show and about his new Netflix series, Clickbait.

In this online talk, Script to Screen invited Australian powerhouse creatives – showrunner/screenwriter/director/producer Tony Ayres (Stateless, The Slap, The Home Song Stories) and producer Kristina Ceyton (The Nightingale, The Babadook) to discuss Building a Slate You Believe In with moderator Karin Williams. Despite the pandemic impacting screen production, distribution and exhibition, the development process for screen projects is able to continue and in some cases thrive. In this TALK, the panel will delve into curating the talent you work with and how to decide which projects to work on. Now more than ever a captive audience demands engaging content. Tony Ayres and Kristina Ceyton's feature films and television series demonstrate each of their abilities to produce projects that please both audiences and critics. Tony is well known for creating some of Australia's most revered film and television drama including The Home Song Stories, Nowhere Boys, The Slap, Glitch and most recently Stateless – created and executive produced with Cate Blanchett and Elise McCredie. Stateless is a series about the people caught up in Australia's immigration system, it premiered at Berlinale this year and Netflix acquired global rights (release date soon to be announced). Kristina's most recent films, allegorical thriller The Babadook, historical thriller The Nightingale (both directed by Jennifer Kent) and Buoyancy (dir. Rodd Rathjen) about 14-year-old Chakra who is sold as slave labour to the captain of a Thai fishing vessel, all deal with challenging subject matter and have gone on to be award-winning films.

Episode 48 of The Blank Canvas Podcast with Alex Russell Alex Russell is one of those young actors who’s been quietly, or not so quietly racked up a dozen movie credits; both in Australia and the US. After starring in the acclaimed indie feature Wasted on the Young, he played the lead role in the US science fiction thriller Chronicle, grossing over $126 million. Then starred in re-make of Brian De Palma’s horror classic, Carrie alongside Julianne Moore & Chloe Grace Moretz, Andrew Niccol’s movie The Host, Cut Snake with director Tony Ayres, a role in Angelina Jolie's Academy Award nominated epic Unbroken, Greg McLean’s film Jungle opposite Daniel Radcliffe, Only The Brave with Josh Brolin, Goldstone, with Jacki Weaver. In television, Alex is into the 5th season of global hit drama SWAT, starring as the much loved Jim Street. This is all great but what impressed me most and prompted me to want to have a yak with Alex, is that rather than just cruising along as a successful working actor, he’s pro-actively producing his own projects. His latest micro-budget indie movie UNDER MY SKIN is punching well above it’s weight. Written and Directed by Alex’s regular collaborator Aussie David O’Donnell, and produced by Alex and Raynen O’Keefe. The story follows Denny, a free spirit and artist who falls for Ryan, a strait-laced lawyer, played by Alex. When Denny questions her gender their love is tested. It’s a powerful film and just won the Alternative Spirit Award at the prestigious Rhode Island International Film Festival and is currently trending on Aussie streaming platform in STAN.

The high-profile production of the Avatar sequels has been getting all the headlines - not all favourable - but according to producer and film-maker Tony Ayres that's just scraping the surface. There's untapped money to be made from worldwide film and television projects currently in desperate need of safe and versatile locations, with experienced crew available. Tony Ayres is a screenwriter and director, as well as showrunner on several TV series including The Slap. He's also the Executive Producer on a yet-to-be announced project to be filmed here.

Tony tells Lynn Freeman that the New Zealand government should invest more in the screen industry here as part of its economic recovery plan...

Can screenplay competitions be worth it? After being repeatedly asked by listeners for thoughts on screenplay competitions, Stu and Chas go full back matter for this special episode. They tackle the question - do comps just feeding the hope machine or are they a valid investment? - in their typical detailed (i.e. long) style. With their differing perspectives, Stu (a director looking for material) and Chas (a writer keen for exposure), talk to an impressive roster of guests. We start with Gordy Hoffman, founder and judge of the Bluecat Screenplay Competition; repeat Austin Film Festival attendees - first for the screenplay and now for the finished web series of EX BEST - Diana Gettinger & Monica Hewes; Launchpad 2014 finalist Tony Pitman; and Insite Competition winner Blake Ashford, whose winning script CUT SNAKE hit cinemas in 2015... ten years after winning the competition. These short descriptions in no way do justice to these eclectic and talented writers so - if you want to find out more - head to the links below. Our apologies in advance for the inconsistent sound quality in these interviews.
