Six projects selected for Series Bootcamp

Congratulations to the teams whose series concepts will be developed at Series Bootcamp 2023! We've listed the WIFT members and their projects below:

  • Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead (Drama/Comedy)
    Writer: Jaya Beach-Robertson
    Writer & Producer: Roo Reihana-Wilson
    Producer: Jazz dos Santos
  • Hello, Stranger (Crime/Drama) 
    Writer: Ryan Carter
    Producer: Olivia Shanks
  • Jamboree (Comedy/Sci Fi)
    Creator & Writer: Rosie Howells
    Writer & Director: Matasila Freshwater

The six teams will workshop their series concepts with New Zealand, Australian and US advisors who give feedback on the quality, originality and viability of their concept and pilot script. The process runs over two months starting with an intensive two-day workshop with advisor sessions and guest speakers. Teams then have three weeks to work on their projects before re-submitting for an online session with a US script developer. The final step is the opportunity to pitch their projects to industry professionals including commissioners who can take their project into production.
