Susie Youssef (The Project, Deadloch) will host the Screen Music Awards 2024 at the Forum Melbourne, Naarm on Tuesday 29 October.
The awards, held by music rights organisation APRA AMCOS, and the Australian Guild of Screen Composers (AGSC), feature 16 categories including compositions for documentaries, short films, advertising, children’s programming and feature film scores.
There are three brand new categories including Best Music for a Video Game or Other Interactive Media, Emerging Screen Composer of the Year and Best Music for Unscripted & Reality Television.
Additionally, the Best Music for a Television Series category has been expanded into two awards: Best Music for a Television Comedy and Best Music for a Television Drama.
Dale Cornelius, President of AGSC, said: “These new award categories are a vital addition to the Screen Music Awards, acknowledging our industry’s full spectrum of talent by shining a well-deserved spotlight on the diverse range of work by composers contributing to Australia’s vibrant screen landscape.”
Erkki Veltheim returns as Musical Director with a Live orchestra.
Nominees will be announced late September.
