Burton, A. "New shows tell our isolation stories on screen - making the most of what's at hand." The Conversation 22 May (2020): 1-5.

Abstract

Coronavirus & Me is the kind of hybrid user-generated television production we can expect to see more of in coming months. With the majority of Australia's film and television industry shut down, and essential production shifting to bedrooms, YouTube style content is elbowing in to the free-to-air and subscription-video-on-demand (SVOD) experience. Tinkering with whatever is at hand to produce media content reflects the emergence of "bricolage" culture into the mainstream.
