Jeff Cooke, Aviation Enthusiast, Dog Lover
The cinema and movies has always been a source of enjoyment and employment. After leaving college, my first job was with Kerridge Odeon, a film distributor in Auckland, New Zealand. This provided the ideal start for my working life and, unknown to me at the time, the ideal introduction into my own movie distribution company much later.

Here, I learned a lesson that has become the touchtone of my filmmaking career: For tr...
Christina Marie, Producer, Filmmaker
After attending my first AFM last year, I was very inspired to shift gears in how I thought of filmmaking.

A like‐minded friend of mine approached me with a wild idea to shoot a 90 minute length Feature in just 3 days on a smaller budge...
