Actors Up Close, Behind The Scenes

In Conversation with Anna Torv & Emma Freeman

Acclaimed actor Anna Torv (Mindhunter, The Last of Us, The Newsreader, Fringe) and director Emma Freeman (The Newsreader, Fake, Stateless, Interview with the Vampire) come together for an exclusive conversation about their creative work and careers.

 

Currently working together on a major production in Queensland, they’ll talk through how stories move from the page to the screen, exploring performance, direction, tone and the many decisions that shape a project. They’ll discuss their experiences working on some of the most talked-about Australian and international series of the past decade, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how memorable television is made.

 

This is a rare chance for audiences to hear from two trailblazing women, as they discuss their collaboration, the projects that have defined their careers, and the changing landscape of storytelling.
