Key Change, a short film written and co-produced by Graeme Simsion, was selected for the Katoomba "Winter Magic" Short Film Festival in June. Key Change (original title Red Porsche II) was produced by RMIT Audio-Visual Technology Students in 2007 and given a re-edit by director David Grant earlier this year. Picture below shows the crew filming at Strathewen, Victoria, a town later devastated by the "Black Saturday" bushfires. Tragically, First Assistant Director Max Emmins, who also played a small role in the film, lost his life in the fires.

 

Post-production on The Last Bottle was completed in August. This short film was shot at RMIT in November 2008 and was directed by Michael Carsen and Beth Child, with Bud Tingwell, Genevieve Picot and Milijana Cancar. This was Bud Tingwell's last film. (Photo below from Heather Hartkamp).
