Kids In Control AIDC 2017

Kids are living the content dream. As viewers, they demand content streamed direct to their personal devices wherever they are, whenever they want it. As creators they are prolific - shooting, editing and sharing films with friends and family from wherever they are, as often as they are allowed! So how is the kids domestic and international marketplace responding to this desire for watching and creating content? What opportunities are there for factual filmmakers to create and deliver content to a young audience that is increasingly streaming anytime, anywhere? ABC Children’s Commissioning Editor Libbie Doherty will provide an introductory snapshot of the ambitious, startling, challenging and authentic kids factual trending in the international landscape. Libbie will discuss the ABC’s commissioning wish-list and explain the parameters of working with ABC Children’s. Joining Libbie on the panel are Laura Waters and Karla Burt of Princess Productions, the producers of the ground-breaking format My Year 12 Life. They will discuss the ethics of working with children as content creators, and the key pointers for collaborating with teenagers and maximising their media skills.
