MLA ENTITY STRUCTURES
MLA operates through a layered structure comprising IP holding, film production, and community-focused entities.
Magic Lands Creations Pty Ltd manages the underlying intellectual property and creative development, while individual screen projects are produced through dedicated special purpose production vehicles (SPVs).
Community education, cultural engagement, and long-term legacy initiatives are supported through aligned Magic Lands Community Trust and partnership structures.
Production Protocol
Respect, protect, educate, and build social and moral awareness around Indigenous culture and Australian and international history.
To protect and gain consent/permissions from communities, traditional owners, and elders around Indigenous culture, oral stories, characters, costumes, language and artefacts, etc., shown in film productions and educational material.
To collaborate with Indigenous and contemporary communities where the story's subject content is located and create educational content that protects heritage and creates infrastructure, employment, and business opportunities in the area.
Reconciliation
Our productions foster collaboration between First Nations and local communities where the story is set, bridging histories to create a shared, knowledgeable, and brighter future for all.
Indigenous-Led Collaboration
First Nations custodians and communities are partners in every project. From research to production, their leadership ensures cultural authority, integrity, and respect — with all outcomes designed to return lasting value to communities.
Shifting Truth
Meaningful truth-telling goes beyond film — it requires dialogue, education, and structural change.
MLA challenges dominant historical narratives by centring rigorous research, critical thinking, and voices long silenced. Through film and community-led engagement, we support a shared past — enabling individuals, institutions, and governments to acknowledge injustice and move toward truth, equality, and understanding.
Long-Term Purpose
Every project is built to inform, empower, and generate impact far beyond the screen.
Innovation
MLA uses emerging technologies, including AI, to expand research, storytelling, and access.
Always guided by ethics, cultural authority, and community control.
