"Donald Trump has said the United States should be applying tariffs to movies
“produced in foreign lands”. This has the potential to deeply impact the
Australian film industry.
Local crews are currently celebrating a boom in big budget production at
studios on the Gold Coast, Sydney and Melbourne. Over the last five years,
foreign production has represented almost half of all drama production
expenditure in Australia.
But the history of Hollywood making movies in Australia warns us not to get
complacent.
When times are good for Australian film crews they can be very good indeed. But
global events can leave studios empty and film crew without work."
