papa’s got a brand new box

March 31, 2009

Nothing But The Struth now has a post office box and is looking for video contributions. I’m always looking for more interviews but some people are cautious about the whole interview process (I’m on the other side of the camera and it makes me nervous!)

Feel free to submit video (any format) about your views on the current state and future of the Australian film industry. Be creative (visually/technically and try to get good sound) but most importantly speak from the heart. Anecdotes, rants, examples, experiences and advice all welcome. Diverse views appreciated. It doesn’t matter if you’re an industry player or an outsider.

If you’ve made a film, try to include some words of wisdom for first time filmmakers, it’s the standard question I ask everyone.

Thanks in advance, you can make a difference!

Billy Marshall Stoneking talks about the funding bodies, the future of filmmaking and the documentary Richard. I love docos and Richard was one of the best I’ve ever seen. Hard to watch and unforgettable. A great example of how documenting is a dangerous obsession that doesn’t end when the camera stops recording. It’s out now on dvd from Siren.
