Our Approach
What gives our work the edge?
Our abundant creativity
Our uniquely creative ideas, and how we translate them on-screen speaks volumes. We know what’s on-trend socially, globally and environmentally and will bring it all together in a way that increases your story’s value.
We do everything
Writers, producers, directors and technically skilled across the board, our many years of experience within the film and television industry means we are equipped with greater scope to what the project needs.
We’re all Australian made
Everything we do is made locally and never outsourced. On global projects you’ll find us in the thick of it, travelling to each destination and rolling up our sleeves to get the best possible shot.
Quality counts
We meet the highest broadcast standards. The onscreen quality of our productions is exceptional because we’re ahead of the curve, using only the latest equipment, technology and techniques.
Numerous broadcast credits
Contingent Filmmakers have numerous broadcast credits to our name. Our Australian made television shows and series are currently being distributed to both national and international markets.
We do what we love
The joy we get in bringing an important story to the screen is evident in every TV show or series we work on. We bring passion to every part of the journey, from ideation to filming, right through to final production.
Case Study
Extreme Animal Transport
Originating as a passion project, Extreme Animal Transport is a proactive TV series following the global transport of large and/or dangerous animals. Created as 10 x 30-minute episodes, Extreme Animal Transport was shot across 16 countries, from the outback of Australia to the Balkan mountains in Europe and is our first Contingent Filmmakers title made for global distribution. This title has already been screened in prime-time on free to air TV in Germany and New Zealand.
To increase distributor and streaming platform interest we set out to make our television series as watchable as possible, appealing to a family demographic. Such a broad target audience is often tricky. A diverse range of ages brings with it diverse sensitivities, likes and dislikes. In Extreme Animal Transport we delicately balanced cute, heavy, light and (sometimes) scary content, capturing each animal’s story in its most engaging, yet palatable way. Our nimble team of two was an undeniable advantage in filming the light and shade we needed for our family demographic, as our agility provided us access into areas larger film crews could not reach. This is a project we are immensely proud of as there’s nothing quite like it in the market.
