This page is dedicated to connecting Deaf and hearing filmmakers, actors, crew members and screen productions with experienced and qualified Auslan interpreters with on-set experience, ensuring a quicker, safer, smoother and more accessible experience for both productions and Deaf clients.
All the below Auslan interpreters have Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) as a freelancer, or are available to be booked through an agency, such as Auslan Services, Expression Australia or Deaf Connect. Productions can either apply for Employment Assistance Fund (EAF) funding (subject to eligibility) or fund through their own production budget.
