Short animated monologues in which various mythical creatures (zombies, Bigfoot, vampires, etc.) approach a psychologist for help with the various problems of their existence. According to the official wesbite at SBS Television, 'They may look like monsters, but they suffer from the same weaknesses as we do. Monster Auditions reflects the richness and diversity of Australian society through these engaging, humourous characters. Funny, warm and occasionally a little sad these characters relate to us all on a variety of levels.'

Mark Gravas ) 2009 Australia : Kapow Pictures Vision Animation , 2009-2010 Z1622102 2009 series - publisher film/TV children's

At thirteen CJ is already a hot DJ - the only trouble is most of her gigs are in her own bedroom. She can spin discs like no-one else, mix and scratch tracks like a pro - but in the deader than dead end of town where she lives, almost nobody wants to know. With her spiky hair and spikier attitude, CJ is little Miss Alternative struggling in a sea of normality - but there's no way she's going to let that get her down.

1 form y separately published work icon I Got A Rocket! Stu Connolly , R. A. Spratt , Jacqueline Turnure , ( dir. Glenn Kirkpatrick ) Sydney United States of America (USA) : SLR Productions Taffy Entertainment , 2006-2007 Z1856001 2006-2007 series - publisher film/TV children's science fiction humour

Based on Matt Zurbo and Dean Gorissen's picture book, I Got A Rocket! follows the adventures of a slightly lonely boy named Vinnie Q, whose inventor father presents him with an anthropomorphised rocket, Rocket. Though the appearance of Rocket does increase Vinnie's popularity, he still needs to deal with his timidity around Maya Kovsky (on whom he has a crush), the misbehaviour of the trio of bullies known as the Duckies, and the over-enthusiasm of a loyal best friend who is, after all, not human.

1 form y separately published work icon The Shapies Brendan Luno , Anthony Watt , Bob La Castra , Robert Adams , Louise Fox , Stu Connolly , Mark Traynor , Roger Moulton , Helen MacWhirter , John Moss , ( dir. Mark Traynor et. al. )agent Australia : Light Knights Entertainment , 2002 Z1883542 2002 series - publisher film/TV children's fantasy

The adventures of a group of geometric shapes that live in Zac's toybox. The first series focuses on the attempts to reunite the divided group of Shapies in the new territory of Zac's bedroom; the second series focuses on more general adventures and the Shapies' side hobby as a rock group. The program was aimed at four- to eight-year-old viewers.

The production company website makes note of a program called Shapies Jnr, which seems to be a new production, based on the original concept but aimed at a younger audience. However, no information on this second program exists outside the production company website itself.

Guy Gross ) Australia France : Yoram Gross Film Studios Millimages ABC Television , 2001 7449954 2001 series - publisher film/TV children's

'Old Tom is based on a series of successful books written by Australian author Leigh Hobbs. Old Tom is a one-eyed, flea-ridden, orange tomcat, who’s good-natured but slothful behaviour is in contrast to the respectable, suburban matron, Angela Throgmorton, who treats Old Tom as if he were her son. They are, in reality, every bit as oddball and eccentric as each other, and together they become involved in a series of comedic adventures and topsy-turvy situations.'
