Spreading fictions: distributing stories in the online age

The panel discussed online video in Australia, presenting early results from an ARC-funded project supported by the ABC and Screen Australia. The central research question is: 'How do Australians get their audiovisual stories and how might they get them in the future?' Responding to the increased emphasis on audiences and distribution in government policy about audiovisual media, the goal is to quantify the changing ways Australians are watching and engaging with audiovisual stories.
