Martin Place and online. Most items were too overpriced.

Their most recent attempt is still there: https://seven.liquidpromotions.com.au/

Unsurprising considering it’s probably manufactured on demand garbage a la Redbubble. There haven’t been any new products since it launched. I wonder if they’ll ever add 7Bravo to that USB stick lmao

They seem to be hemorrhaging money too - doesn’t help when they’ve got to spend $1.7billion (US) to integrate Showtime into Paramount+

PAW PATROL JOINS FORCES WITH FIRE AND RESCUE NSW TO CELEBRATE OPEN DAY - NSW

With winter fast approaching, Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW), will join forces with Nickelodeon and Spin Master Entertainment’s hit animated preschool property PAW Patrol, at the Emergency Services Academy in Orchard Hills on Saturday, May 13 as part of this year’s annual FRNSW Open Day (10 am to 2 pm).

Two of PAW Patrol’s heroic rescue pups in training, Marshall and Chase, will be_ _on a roll as they take centre stage with FRNSW Commissioner Paul Baxter on Saturday, as part of a state-wide Open Day for families to head down to their nearest Fire Station to meet their local firefighters and check out the facilities.

Out at the Emergency Services Academy, PAW Patrol’s Marshall and Chase costume characters will spend time with local families checking out Fire Trucks, watching firefighting demonstrations and learning more about important fire safety messages.

Nickelodeon and Spin Master Entertainment’s hit animated preschool franchise PAW Patrol**, is a global phenomenon and celebrated as one of the most popular **and top-rated kids brands in the world. Celebrating its 10-year anniversary milestone in 2023, PAW Patrol features a curriculum that focuses on citizenship, social skills and problem-solving.

The series, which follows the PAW-some pack of_ _heroic rescue pups - Chase, Marshall, Rubble, Skye, Rocky, Zuma, Everest and Tracker led by a tech-savvy boy named Ryder, work together on action-packed rescue missions and adventures to protect their community, believing no job is too big, no pup is too small. PAW Patrol encourages kids to learn about themes of bravery and heroism, with positive storylines inspired by real life service careers.

Daniel Monaghan, Senior Vice President, Content & Programming, Paramount ANZ, said “PAW Patrol embodies universal themes of community service, rescue and friendship, with positivity and teamwork at its core – all of which present a natural alignment with the courageous work of FRNSW.

“We are proud to partner with FRNSW for their annual Open Day and involve our PAW Patrol franchise to support a community day of celebration and reinforce the outstanding contribution FRNSW deliver to our community each and every day.” FRNSW Commissioner Paul Baxter said Open Day was an opportunity to show people that firefighters do so much more than fight fires. “Open Day is really about inviting the community to come along to their local fire station to meet with firefighters and find out more about the job they do. "Our crews don’t just put out fires. They attend road crashes, deal with hazardous materials, save animals and are prepared for anything and ready to help at anytime,” Commissioner Baxter said. “Open Day helps to showcase these attributes to the community and educate them about key home safety messages. "This year we are focussing on the importance of ‘Sounding the Alarm’ and making sure that we all check the smoke alarm inside our own home and make sure that it is working. “Each year, approximately 20 people die in NSW from fires that could have been prevented. “Open Day allows you to speak to local firefighters about what safety measures to take leading into winter and also give you the opportunity to book in a free home safety visit from your local station.”

We have developed a Get Ready for Winter checklist - to find out more, visit https://www.fire.nsw.gov.au/winter. For more information on FRNSW Open Day or to find out if your local fire station is participating, visit www.fire.nsw.gov.au/openday

Network 10 Partners With Screen Queensland For National Reconciliation Week Initiative

Emerging Queensland-based First Nations filmmakers have produced four community service announcements to air on 10 and 10 Play as part of the Screen Queensland and Network 10 First Nations Skills Placement.

Network 10 and Screen Queensland have joined forces to launch four Queensland-made community service announcements (CSAs) which will broadcast on Network 10 channels during Reconciliation Week. The CSAs have come together as the result of the Screen Queensland and Network 10 First Nations Skills Placement and Mentorship program which involved a four-week paid placement with Network 10 and a subsequent 6-month mentorship program with Network 10 executives.

Selected for the program were four Queensland-based, early-career Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander filmmakers – Wiradjuri woman Kellie Baxter, Bundjalung woman Gretta Ada O’Sullivan, and Torres Straight Islanders Abraham Mantey and Sio Tusa. Over four weeks these emerging filmmakers wrote, produced and directed their own community service announcements drawing inspiration from their community and culture. The CSAs were filmed in K’gari (Hervey Bay), Butchulla Country (Fraser Island), Wakka Wakka, Jarowair and Barrumgum Country (the Bunya Mountains) and Djabugay Country (Far North Queensland) and focus on themes of wildlife, cultural sites, rock art, language and storytelling.

According to Dr Belinda Burns, Screen Queensland’s Acting CEO, the initiative serves as part of the agency’s commitment to better supporting First Nations screen practitioners in Queensland.

“In making these moving and authentic CSA spots, the four Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander practitioners were enabled to gain the practical skills, expert guidance and credits essential to launching long-term screen industry careers,” said Dr Burns.

“As we move along the Queensland Government’s Path to Treaty, Screen Queensland is focused on the vital importance of bolstering the next generation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander screen storytellers — raising their voices to share truths and valuable perspectives with Australian audiences.”

Daniel Monaghan, Senior Vice President, Programming and Content at Paramount Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), parent company of Network 10, said the network are proud of the partnership and to be making steps towards reconciliation.

“This partnership aligns with our goals to promote reconciliation through our sphere of influence by proactively establishing relationships with First Nations practitioners as well as with organisations like Screen Queensland who share in this mission,” Mr Monaghan stated.

“Allowing the recipients to be immersed in a professional production, and work alongside established and skilled crew to produce their own content, is a unique experience that adds to their practical understanding of the industry, including physical production, development, technical direction, and teamwork.”

The CSAs will be broadcast on 10 in metro Queensland from Saturday 27 May and are available to watch on 10 Play right now, along with some behind the scenes interviews with the participants and more traditional stories.
