An Other Voice From Aceh - Awareness and Fundraising Version.
This is an early version of the film, which was used to raise awareness and funds to purchase about 270 bicycles for children in the Tendah Lapang III Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp. It was awarded the Juror's Commendation For Production at the 2006 NASS (National Academy of Screen and Sound) Awards. My son, Noah, and I delivered the bikes on Boxing Day 2006, exactly two years after the tsunami. click here to see the video.

A Cambodian Story
In October 2006, I organised a trip to Cambodia with five of my Year Eleven students. This trip was an opportunity to expose my students to trauma, visiting places like the Killing Fields and Teul Sleng Genocide Museum and engaging with those in dire poverty. I oversaw the production of A Cambodian Story, which won the Best Secondary School Production award at the 2007 West Australian Screen Awards and at the time of writing, is being translated into other languages for international markets.. click here to see the video.

Blossom
Blossom was a work of passion; my graduation piece produced in 1995. It was nominated for a number of awards at the West Australian Screen Awards in 1996, winning the award for Best Editing in the Student Film division. click here to see the video.

Justice Executor
I wrote lyrics, played bass and made this music video for Petal. It questions our desire to see justice done to others, but mercy done to ourselves. click here for lyrics. click here to see the video.

Terminal Sorrow
Once again I wrote lyrics for Terminal Sorrow, as well as playing bass. I also co-shot/directed/edited this clip, which won the award for Best Music Video in the West Australian Screen Awards 1997. This song touches on the internal conflict experienced by a person hurting someone they love. click here for lyrics. click here to see the video.

Buyers of Benetton
My first real video production. I wrote lyrics, played bass and made this music video over the summer of 1994/5. It questions our integrity as we purchase goods produced by companies that exploit those in dire circumstances. click here for lyrics. click here to see the video.
