Ruby Entertainment, a production company he co-founded, continued to flourish, producing telemovies like the Murray Whelan series and the enduring comedy/drama “Bed of Roses,” featuring Kerry Armstrong. Stephen’s work on “The Secret River” earned him the Screen Producers’ Association of Australia’s “Producer of the Year” award and a Logie Award for ‘Most Outstanding Mini-Series or Telemovie.’ Beyond producing, he also shares his expertise as an instructor in the Master of Producing program at the Victorian College of the Arts.
The event will feature an engaging Q&A session with Stephen Luby and Geelong Writer & Filmmaker, Ryan Chamley.

His innovative storytelling continued with “My Friend Anxiety” in 2021, which won “Best Screenplay” at The Hollywood Short Film Festival. Following the success of “Rostered On,” Ryan went on to develop “Counter Girls.” Currently, he is working on his debut feature film and exploring animation, all while continuing to showcase his passion for storytelling and innovation in filmmaking.
