I came across this article today on the JUNKEE website, a site I rely on for my daily dose of media and the kind of news I want to hear about. The article lists five short films made by Aussies with next to nothing in ways of money and equipment. I was surprised to see that ‘Granny Smith’, a film that recently won Tropfest 2014 was amongst the five. When I first saw ‘Granny Smith’ towards the end of last year I thought it was so well executed that they must have had to raise quite a lot in order to produce the final product. But apparently not. Additionally, the director of the film, Julian Lucas, is also a graduate from the RMIT Media and Communications Bachelor Degree which is a little bit exciting I have to admit.
