Filmmakers have honed their skills and many have achieved critical
and popular success at home and abroad, as have actors and other
crew. American filmmakers and companies have found it cheaper to
make films in Australia because wages and salaries are lower, tax
rebates have been attractive and the expertise in most areas of
filmmaking is comparable to that of anywhere in the world. At the
same time, Australian audiences still enjoy watching Australian
films, making some of them profitable, even if this is a small
profit when considered in Hollywood terms. New Zealand filmmakers,
cast and crew have shown that they are equal to the world's best in
making films with international themes, while other films have
shown that the world is interested in New Zealand narratives and
settings. Increased support for Maori filmmakers and stories has
had a significant impact on production levels and on the diversity
of stories that now reach the screen. It has also helped create
more viable career paths for those who continue to be based in
their home country. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of
Australian and New Zealand Cinema contains a chronology, an
introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section
has over 700 cross-referenced entries on leading films as well as
many directors, writers, actors and producers. It also covers early
pioneers, film companies, genres and government bodies.
