I’ve just spent the last 18 months travelling, researching, writing, shooting and editing my latest passion project

 ‘Australia Burns…silence of the land’.

Between June 2019 and March 2020 Australia experienced a catastrophic bushfire season, one of the worst on record. The bushfires burnt an estimated 18.6 million hectares, destroyed nearly 3,000 homes and killed 34 people. An estimated one and a quarter billion animals were killed, and some endangered species may now be close to extinction.

In this documentary I didn’t just focus on the fires and their devastating effect on Australia’s unique wildlife and eco system. The film digs deep into whether climate change played a role, why were the fires so random and merciless and will this become the new normal?

‘Australia Burns….silence of the land’, is now finally finished. The whole project to date has been happily self-funded, but now I want to take it to the next stage.

With your valued support I’ll be able to premiere my film in the cinema with a live audience and cover the costs for local and international film festival entry and participation.

Because this crowd funding is all or nothing, if the campaign doesn’t reach its target amount, no dollar pledges will be processed.

On the positive side, every dollar raised beyond my minimum goal will allow me to enhance my post-production quality and expand my distribution plans for film festivals to reach the widest possible audience.

I’ve got just one month to reach my target so please, if you can, pledge now and get behind this project. 

Thank you, I really appreciate your support.
