Revelation Perth International Film Festival announced the nominees for the 5th annual WA Screen Culture Awards celebrating the local Western Australian film industry.
“We’re so proud to play such a central role in the development a screen sector through Awards as well as our other year-round initiatives,” says Revelation Perth International Film Festival Director Richard Sowada.
“From a place where one feature film was produced in WA every three years to becoming one of the strongest independent production sectors in the country, the WASCAs acknowledges and rewards that phenomenal achievement and embraces the convergence of screen-based forms.”
Now in its fifth year the WASCAs will be held on Sunday December 1 hosted by comedian Emma Krause.
