An Australian film production company Reel House Productions believes there’s still a fortune to be made making films as streaming services invest billions in a hunt for content that will create a supply shortage in Hollywood.

Reel House Productions partner Jay Grant says an “arms race” is underway between streaming platforms such as Netflix, Amazon, YouTube and the established film industry studios such as Disney, Sony, Universal, Paramount and Warner Brothers “desperate for high quality, affordable content to attract subscribers” and spending billions to source it.

“Reel House Productions will lead a new golden age in Australian cinema,” he said.

There are plenty of neighbourhoods and venues in Melbourne that will welcome your pets, but nowhere is that more apparent than on Chapel Street. The four-kilometre stretch has been officially named as the first major shopping precinct to go permanently pet friendly.

There are currently more than 300 pet-friendly businesses on Chapel, including some of our favourite haunts like Leonard’s House of Love and Hawker Hall. These pet-friendly venues will be easier to find now thanks to “paw on the door” stickers that’ll let those out walking with their dogs (or cats – you do you) if their four-legged friend can come inside.
