Queensland Film Corporation

The Queensland Film Corporation was a government funded film production company that existed in Queensland in the 1980s.

It was established by the Queensland Industry Development Act of 1977. Its original brief was not to produce films but to encourage the development of the film industry in Queensland.

At one stage it was run by Allan Callaghan, former press officer to Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen who was sent to gaol for misappropriating government funds.

The organisation was eventually wound up in October 1987 having spent $5.4 million on various projects.

The Queensland government later formed Film Queensland and the Pacific Film and TV Corporation.
