Supporting the creative industries

We continue to back our members in the print, media, entertainment, and arts industries. As one of Australia's leading industry funds, we're here to benefit our members but where it makes sense to do so, we also invest in our members' industries.

Investing in film and TV productions

Through our funding arrangement with Fulcrum Media Finance (Fulcrum) we are helping bring entertainment to the big screen and into our members’ homes.

Who is Fulcrum Media Finance?

Fulcrum is not a traditional bank; they are a specialist industry lender who provide access to tax incentives and pre-sale advance loans for film and TV productions across Australia and New Zealand.

As of 30 June 2025, Fulcrum has loaned more than $847 million to help finance the production of more than 455 screen productions supporting the Australian film and television industry.

Production highlights:

• Highly anticipated family feature film “Bluey: The Movie”
• Second series of the widely acclaimed documentary series “The Assembly”
• Feature film based on the successful tv show “Bump: A Christmas film”
• Premium drama series “The Family Next Door”
• Comedy drama TV series “He Had It Coming”
• Two new children’s animated series “Andrew the Big BIG Unicorn” and “Do Not Watch This Show”

Our arrangement with Fulcrum dates back to 2010 and was originally launched as a $30 million revolving loan. The relationship has grown since Media Super’s merger with Cbus Super in April 2022. Our support continues with Cbus now providing a revolving loan limit of over $100 million, highlighting our continued support for our members in the creative industries.
