‘RED’ Development Writing and Directing Indigenous Initiative
Pink Pepper and Ramu Productions in association with Brown Sugar Apple Grunt Productions and Screenwest
Call out for applications for WA Female Indigenous Writer/Directors
In 2020, new Screenwest initiative RED will follow the same innovative format as Brown Sugar Apple Grunt’s Waru, with up to eight WA Indigenous Female creatives being selected to produce an Indigenous feature film.
BSAG Productions will executive produce the feature film with Indigenous Western Australian producers Taryne Laffar (Pink Pepper) and Jodie Bell (Ramu Productions).
This initiative will develop one scripted 80-minute Indigenous Feature film project for production. All eight Indigenous creatives will be writing and Directing 10-minute shorts that will intertwine a common theme, exploring the impact of ‘missing Indigenous women’ from a female Aboriginal perspective: for the combined feature film. This will then go into Production mid/late 2020.
