Awards, Strategy, and International Opportunities

Deirdre Hopkins, BAFTA’s Head of Film, joins the AACTA Festival live from London to share insights on how Australian creators can engage with one of the world’s leading arts organisations.
Hopkins will explain how to submit Australian projects for BAFTA consideration, clarify eligibility and timelines, and offer strategies for positioning work to reach international audiences. The session will also explore ways for Australian filmmakers to connect with BAFTA’s global community and build visibility for local projects on the European stage.
