Hi everyone.
I'm 24, from Tassie, then did a year of film school in Melbourne but I didn't like it so now I'm in Broken Hill in pre production on my first feature film.
It's called Man vs Car and we've got a budget of $50,000 and it's to be shot in Broken Hill and Tassie.
I love action movies and I'm very excited to make this for my first feature.

you're on you own out there! although some memorable films have been shot in that particular part of the country.
I'll give you a call next time I visit (once or twice a year)
BTW welcome aboard - you'll find this an amazing resource

Glad to have another Taswegian on board (I'm very, very ex but it's the thought that counts).
Always reckoned you could do a car chase scene to beat Bullitt, up hill and down dale in Hobart, you gonna sneak one into this production?
If the HCC gets sniffy you could always shoot it here - heck, Dunedin is Hobarts evil genetic twin!

Hej Sam
I am an expat Taswegian with a allot of love from my home island and the mountain I grew up under, currently work as a DP in Sweden. I miss Tassie - left when I was 25, moved to Sweden. If you ever get the chance to come up here bring some Cascade Pale ale or Cascade Export Stout, will give you a great tour of my neck of the woods. Unfortunatley Sweden isn't in the beer belt :-)
Cheers
