‘Tidelands’. 

The nominees for this year’s Australian Production Design Guild (APDG) Awards have been unveiled, with 140 nominees across 19 categories.

Those behind the worlds of Hotel Mumbai, Judy and Punch, Ladies in Black and Storm Boy are in contention for the best production design on a feature film award, while those who helped to put together A Place To Call Home (Season 6),  Black Mirror: Striking Vipers, Bloom and Tidelands will vie for the equivalent award in TV/web series.

Overall, Netflix series Tidelands leads with four nominations, while feature films I Am Mother and Ladies In Black have three each.

APDG president George Liddle said: ‘The guild is thrilled to represent all the talent from the diverse areas of design and to highlight and award the outstanding work produced over the last year in our annual awards.”

Hosted by MC Adam Eliot, the APDG Awards will be held on December 1 at The Melba Spiegeltent in Collingwood, Melbourne.
