Career

Her first documentary, The Sound of Therapy, focused on the use of music therapy with developmentally delayed children. [4] It was screened nationally by the Australian public broadcaster, Special Broadcasting Service, received extensive media attention [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] and earned her a place at the Australian Film, Television and Radio School. [10] She subsequently made numerous short films [11] including Surrender [12] which achieved theatrical release with AFI Distribution [13] and received positive critical attention within Australia and at international film festivals. [14]

From 2004 to 2008, Hammett-Jamart held senior policy positions within the Australian government's film funding agencies (Policy Officer, Manager Governance and Strategic Planning). She was a member of the Transition Team responsible for overseeing the merger of the Film Finance Corporation Australia, the Australian Film Commission and Film Australia into the current single agency, Screen Australia.

Since obtaining her PhD in Media and Communications, [15] [16] she has published extensively on screen policy [17] [18] [19] and delivered lectures at key international conferences and institutions including the US Society for Cinema and Media Studies (SCMS), the European Network for Cinema and Media Studies (NECS), King's College London [20] the British Institute in Paris, the University of Copenhagen, [21] and the Institut National d'Histoire de l'Art. [22] Hammett-Jamart is known in particular for her research into policy implementation on international co-productions [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] and has held visiting fellowships at the Université Paris III (UFR Arts et Medias) and the University of London.

In 2016 she co-founded the Coproduction Research Network. Under its auspices, she has undertaken consultancies for major European public institutions including the European Audiovisual Observatory [29] and has co-edited and co-authored the collected volume European Film and Television Co-production: Policy and Practice. [30] She is a member of the Steering Committee of the Produire au Sud 'Scholar in Residence' program at the Festival des Trois Continents [31] and teaches in the professional Masters program [32] at the Université Paris III, La Sorbonne Nouvelle.
