The Brisbane Film & TV Industry

In January 2019 Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk opened the new $12 million fit-for-purpose Screen Queensland Studios located in the Brisbane bayside suburb of Hemmant.

The Government has invested $12 million into repurposing former cotton sheds into a new studio production facility, 15 kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD.

“Queensland has been experiencing a production boom in recent years and one of the most prolific periods of film and TV production in the history of our state.

“Queensland’s screen industry is thriving, and my Government’s support for this new studio will bring a new wave of investment in the creative jobs of the future,” the Premier said.

“Queensland is recognised as a production paradise and film-friendly state, and we are known internationally for our diverse and unrivalled natural locations, strong financial incentives, world-class facilities and award-winning talent and crew.”
