Since coming to office, the Marshall Government has invested over $15 million on the rebate for Post-Production, Digital and Visual Effects (PDV) work done in South Australia. Since the introduction of the PDV Rebate in 2018, expenditure on post-production, digital and visual effects work undertaken each year in South Australia has more than doubled, jumping from $35 million in 17/18 to a record high of $75 million in 19/20, according to Screen Australia’s Annual Drama Report (2019-20). The rewards of investment in the screen sector are plain for all to see with Mortal Kombat generating an estimated 180 jobs in PDV on top of the 535 South Australian cast and crew employed, and 808 extras engaged during production. “The Marshall Government’s PDV Rebate will also continue to assist South Australia’s other world-class PDV companies such as Technicolor’s Mr X, KOJO, Resin and Artisan Post Group – who all delivered PDV services to Mortal Kombat – to bring high-value PDV work to Adelaide from across Australia and the fast-growing international market.” ![]() “Rising Sun Pictures accessed the PDV Rebate for its work on The Boys and I expect the company to benefit from the additional $22.8 million we invested into the rebate scheme in the State Budget. “South Australia’s screen industry is enjoying a golden age with the Marshall Government’s financial support bolstering South Australian-led productions and helping to attract footloose productions from around the world, driving new investment and local job creation. “It’s fantastic that South Australia’s Rising Sun Pictures can compete with the world’s best for PDV work and that’s why we have allocated another $22.8 million over five years to fund a 10 per cent rebate on expenditure on PDV for work undertaken in South Australia,” said Minister for Innovation and Skills David Pisoni.
