We LOVE the SQ games residency and what this initiative is doing to support creative, sustainable #games businesses in Queensland.

The frizz is real. I was so very lucky to split my Darwin trip between The Array and the #ntscreensummit. TY to The Array & Screen Territory for bringing local creatives together for this important weekend. NT creatives are inspiring and driven, & deserve all of the support. #gamedev #lawyer

Loving the humidity in #darwin right now! I'm here for the NT Screen Summit after a couple of days at The Array. Reach out if you're around and would like to chat over an iced coffee (for me, not going to gatekeep your caffeine of choice).

Well, looks like you're going to be seeing my face around Melbourne International Games Week, because I'm presenting at GCAP! Come nerd out with me over open source software.

(Hoping my software lawyer boss doesn't read this blurb. Ilovemyjobilovemyjobilovemyjob.)

๐ŸŽฎ Stoked to share that we now offer discounted legal packages for screen agency grant recipients! ๐ŸŽฎ

Our packages are fixed-fee wherever possible, and billed on a deferred basis, so you can stress less about legal costs and focus on creating.

Get in touch for more info!

Was stoked to provide a comment on this one - Harrison is asking all of the right questions and I'm glad we're collectively turning our minds to drawing the line between IP protections and consumer rights.
