Made in NSW is an AU$175 million fund over four years (2020-2025). The level of financial assistance offered is determined on a case-by-case basis.

This incentive can be combined with the Australian Federal Government’s incentives: Location Offset, Location Incentive, PDV Offset, and the Producer Offset.

Projects must be footloose. Eligible projects include:

• Feature films, telemovies, animation, mini-series, and TV drama series;
• International/Australian co-productions; and
• Fully internationally financed features and TV projects from local production companies.

The NSW Post, Digital and Visual Effects (PDV) rebate offers eligible productions a 10 per cent rebate on Qualifying NSW PDV expenditure related to PDV work carried out in NSW.

The rebate can be combined with Australian Federal Government incentives.

An applicant must spend at least $AU500,000 on PDV in New South Wales.

Eligible formats are:

• Feature films (drama, documentary, animation)
• TV drama, animation, comedy and documentary (telemovies, mini -series and series).

Applicants must register the project with Screen NSW prior to the commencement of PDV work for which the rebate is sought.

This program offers eligible productions assistance for location surveys and may include covering some of the costs associated with on-ground travel, including accommodation, domestic flights, vehicle hire and location manager services.

In addition to working with Ausfilm to facilitate international inbounds, Screen NSW welcomes direct enquiries.

Eligible projects include long-form feature films, telemovies, mini-series, TV series, pilots, and reality programs.

The program is open to projects prior to commencement of pre-production and prior to/or during financing.
