Are there protocols for working with Indigenous content or Indigenous communities?
Yes, there are protocols for working with Indigenous content and communities. Screen Australia has developed the document, Pathways and Protocols: A filmmaker’s guide to working with Indigenous people, culture and concepts. This guide has been produced to provide advice about the ethical and legal issues involved in transferring Indigenous cultural material to the screen. Please note that if you are filming on Indigenous lands you will need to obtain a permit, see the Fast Facts page for more information.
