The CAPA Conference will offer an opportunity to discuss ideas and share best practices in working on long form content within a school’s curriculum through incubating labs, as co-productions and/or through close collaborations with industry partners.
The conference will take place in Brisbane on November 18/19, hosted by the Griffith Film School.

The CILECT Congress will take place immediately after, from November 20 till 24. The biannual congress will focus on the topic "Ethics and Aesthetics":

"As filmmakers and film teachers we share neither an aesthetic nor an ethic. Even more tragically we make films, and teach others to make them, without relating the one to the other. How the practice became separated from the purpose or the aesthetic for the ethic, predates the invention of the medium. Our schools could, and perhaps should, be the place where every next generation is reminded of that essential relationship.
In an age where both religion and political ideology have lost their all-pervasive influence, how do we build an effective aesthetic, wedded to a commonly held ethical system, which can provide a foundation for media in a troubled world?"
