Acknowledgement of country

Batchelor Institute would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander sovereign people of the lands on which our campuses are located. As we share our knowledge, teaching and learning and engage in research practices within this Institution and/or conduct business with a variety of external agencies and organisations, we must always pay respect to the sovereign status of our hosts. May their Ancestors always be remembered and honoured, their Elders listened to and respected, all members treated with dignity and fairness — in the present and well into the future.

We also acknowledge and pay respect to the knowledge embedded forever with our hosts, custodianship of country and the binding relationship they have with the land. Batchelor Institute extends this acknowledgment and expression of respect to all sovereign custodians — past, present and emerging. By expressing Acknowledgement of Country we encourage all to extend and practice respect to all First Nations people wherever their lands are located.

Batchleor Institute crew and Screen and Media lecturer Heath Baxter attending the Darwin premiere of Netflix TV series Territory

Three talented students from Batchelor Institute are making their mark in the television industry! These students worked on Netflix's new series called Territory, which started showing worldwide on October 24, 2024.

Meet Our Student Stars

The three students who got this amazing chance are:

  • Tyrelle Berryman
  • Michael Raymond
  • Maxwell Tasman

These talented students are all studying Screen and Media at Batchelor Institute. They worked with professional TV makers and learned real job skills during the filming.

What Did Our Students Do?

Tyrelle and Michael: Location Team 

Tyrelle and Michael helped make sure everything on set ran smoothly. They worked in the locations team, which is very important for TV shows.

"We kept the set safe and made sure everything worked well," says Tyrelle. "It was amazing to see how a big TV show works."

Michael adds, "Working in the locations team showed me how many people need to work together to make a TV show. It's a big job!"

Maxwell: Sound Expert

Maxwell worked with the sound team. He helped record sound during filming and also worked on making the sound better after filming finished.

"Working on a Netflix show was incredible," Maxwell says. "I can't wait to watch the show and hear my work!"

Special Screening Event

Screen Territory organised a special screenings of Territory on October 23, 2024. These screenings took place in:

  • Darwin
  • Sydney
  • Adelaide

Our students attended the Darwin screening and experienced walking the red carpet!

Why This Matters

Heath Baxter, who teaches Screen and Media at Batchelor Institute, explains why this experience is so valuable: "When our students work on big shows like this, not only do they get that real life job experience, they meet important people in the TV industry. These connections often help them find jobs later."

About the Show

Territory was filmed in many places across the Northern Territory and South Australia. Available now on Netflix.
