James! It's just the two of us...actually lots of people are reading, just not commenting - these things take time!

How are you finding Sydney? Are you missing Tea and Cadburys yet?

We have alot of people on our British site asking us about how easy it is to find work as a Brit in Australia - I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

Oh well, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it takes off!

In all honesty, there is not a great deal of difference in culture between Sydney and the UK - I have given in and bought some Twinings tea from time to time.

I haven't been living in Sydney that long. I've been traveling Australia for 2 months and now I'm looking for work. At the moment I haven't found many opportunities in film and TV. I'd appreciate any pointers as to find more.

I'm a colourist and it's difficult to know what to look for as the Australian usage of the term apparently means colouring hair. I imagine anyone involved in post-production who is travelling may find finding individual film project work difficult as you can't exactly carry around your editing/colour-grading studio. Many film-role postings want you to have your own equipment. But it's still early days.

I shall update when I have made some progress.

You're not alone =P

My name's Ben, I'm a TV researcher/AP moving to Melbourne early next year with my partner.

Do you guys know of any places in Melbourne that are particularly friendly/interested in relative newbies to the industry? I've done a year and a half in Kids TV in NZ and want to get a foot in the door in the Aus industry.

Cheers
Ben

Hi guys!

I'm Sally, based in Melbourne. Costume Assistant looking for more film projects to work on. I LOVE tea. If anyone is up for tea in Melbourne give me a shout. I'm always up for tea. Ever been to that purple place in the Emporium in the city? There's really fancy floral tea pots and tea cups.

So in a nutshell, I love working in Costume, on a film, drinking tea, then going for amazing dinner in Melbourne. Anyone looking for my type?

Sally

Hi everyone, I'm Randall and i've been doing video production since 2008. I'm really looking for some feature film projects to be part of (In any capacity). I've been distracted by the success videography has to offer, but it's not my passion. I need to work in film.

If I have to start from the bottom to slide under the door, so be it :)
