Local consultations take place in the Shane Brennan Writers’ Room at The Mercury. Funded by Shane Brennan, President of the Australian Writers Guild from 2019 to 2023, the Mercury’s Shane Brennan Writers’ Room is a dedicated space for the craft of script developing and screenwriting. Interstate consultations will take place via Zoom and subscribers are welcome to book the Writers’ Room for their Zoom meetings to take full advantage of the facilities at The Mercury while connecting with the industry interstate.
Bookings essential. To secure your complimentary consultation input your 5 digit subscriber member code (found underneath the barcode on your FOB) in the checkout page to reduce full price to the complimentary subscriber offer.
Please submit your script or pitch document to industry@themercury.org.au at least 7 working days before your session for review.
