We acknowledge and respect the Traditional Owners of lands across Australia, their Elders, Ancestors, cultures and heritage, and recognise the continuing sovereignties of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations.

We respectfully acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which the ACTF is based and pay our respect to their Elders past and present.

We are honoured to have the opportunity to learn from the oldest cultural storytellers in the world and seek to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander practitioners to share their rich culture and perspectives with children in Australia and around the world via stories on screen.

Register for the ACTF's Composer Q&A Webinar

Celebrate Make Music Day by finding out how the music is created for your favourite children’s TV shows and meet the talented composers behind the music for some of the most popular Australian children’s series.

In this unique virtual learning event, students can ask Joff Bush, Helena Czajka, Craig Pilkington, Ned Beckley and Josh Hogan about their backgrounds as composers, their work in creating music for TV shows and how they collaborate with others in the media industry.

The webinar will provide an engaging experience for students, and for those wanting to learn about composing, the creative process involved in developing music for television, careers in music and advice the composers might have for students.
