    DescriptionThe interview with ABC Riverina Radio Breakfast program host Sally Bryant discusses Australian cinematography, the rise of First Nation voices, stories, and creative practitioners in screen media. The interview also considers general viability of Australian productions in a changing media landscape. The focal point of the discussion, ABC's teleseries Mystery Road: Origin (2022), is set in remote Australia, where so many great Australian cinematographers have worked with a uniquely challenging but rewarding landscape. The exceptional quality of cinematography in Mystery Road: Origin is compelling, accomplished work, presenting the landscape as a critical protagonist. It does so in a highly cinematic form more commonly associated with features than teleseries, embodying the blurring of lines between disciplines - something shaped by the changing nature of entertainment consumption in a digital, on-demand consumer market.
