A brisk May morning, saw the Australian premiere of my short film, The Final Illusion, up in the small town of Dungog.

In what was an incredibly inspiring weekend, I caught up with old industry folk from years back, rubbed shoulders with Gillian Armstrong after listening to her wonderful talk.
Helped film the speed auditioning competition with Australian Directors Guild President, Ray Argyle and Casting Director Faith Martin.

Listened to a panel featuring Jeremy Sims, Brendan Cowell & Cameron Daddo about their latest feature films, and went to a few entertaining short film sessions at the Oovie Theatre.



But I have to say, the real highlight of the weekend, was the Dungog Street Parade – when all the locals came out with their horses, cows, tractors and Jack Russells to entertain all us filmgoers :)
