'This article examines the role of Queensland's film festival network, focusing on how regional festivals are central to the development of the screen industry beyond the metropolitan centres. The research is based on a mapping project of film festivals in Queensland undertaken in 2018, which included interviews with festival organisers and industry professionals. 68 active festivals were identified across Queensland, of which 45% took place in Brisbane. This article investigates both the value of film festivals and the challenges for their economic sustainability in Queensland's screen culture and industry.' (Publication abstract)

    'Welcome to this special issue of Studies in Australasian Cinema, focusing on business aspects of the cinema industry. The five articles included in this special issue were developed in response to a call for papers for the 2020 Conference of the Australian Screen Production, Education and Research Association (ASPERA) which was to be held in Newcastle, NSW in June. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event - like many others - was significantly reorganised, with only a single day of on-line sessions in place of the traditional three days of live presentations and screenings. Fortunately, many of the ASPERA researchers who had intended to come to the conference decided to complete their written contributions, and it’s their work we present here.' (Editorial introduction)
