Filmmaker Daniel King has been named the inaugural recipient of the Indigenous Documentary Placement, a new initiative co-presented by the ABC, Northern Pictures and the Australian Documentary Conference.
Daniel, a descendent of the Yuin and Awabakal nations, will develop his skills in documentary, factual development and production through an eight-month placement with the ABC and Northern Pictures from late May.
Daniel is a documentary filmmaker, cinematographer and editor who, for more than a decade, has focused on telling the stories of First Nations peoples. He directed the 2020 feature-length documentary
Trading Cultures, screened on NITV / SBS, which traced the collaboration between three Indigenous Australian artists and three artists from Makassar in South Sulawesi.
