A short film "Positive Expecations", based on my own short story which won the Postalk Short Story Competition 2000.
This is a story that looks at the reconciliation of a father and son and the issues they have to deal with, such as Aboriginality, homosexuality and aids. This is a two handed piece and comes in two drafts: one; the entire film is on one set with some inside to outside shots; two; the piece is shot with street work added to the previously stated draft with this, the second draft, being about 15-17 minutes with the first draft only 12-13 minutes.
Scriptwriter is not "precious" and totally able to work in and with ensemble type work.
Previous experince:
BCA in Creative Writing, University of Wollongong (UOW), Wollongong, 1995-1998
MA in Creative Writing: Writing for Theatre, UOW, Wollongong, 1999
Currently, a PhD candidate in the English Studies Program; Urban Aboriginal 'Voice', the discourse and legitimacy.
Author of "Buckley's Hope" a two act play that represented Australia at the 1999 US National Playwrights' Conference in Connecticut, USA.
