15. This ppt is a reworked version of the one I did at
inmedia 09 at Christchurch NZ
You had to be there to get the gist of it, as it was a
conversation bet ween myself and Jeremy Macey
from the NZ film Commission
I have put in all the internet links as I have saved
this as a PDF rather than a PPT
However the general discussion about Industry and
the Level 3 Achievemnt Standard is apparent in the
slides.
