Production has wrapped on ‘For the Boys’!
An enormous and very heartfelt thanks to the partners of Footy Shorts -
@wearevicscreen x
@afl x
@melbfilmfest - for affording us the chance to bring this poignant and special story to life.
From the get go, it has been one of those unicorn projects that builds and builds and builds.
From early development through to production,
@mitchbrownie and
@kecklou have been beyond generous with their time, spirit and trusting us with such an intimate, personal story.
The crew (aka The Dream Team) all brought their own genius and vibe to set, making this not only a hoot to shoot, but the very essence of what I love about making films - a collaborative process of discovery and immersion.

@viegas.sofia deserves a special shout out for pulling off the seemingly impossible and wrangling locations, access and approvals on a very tight timeframe without skipping a beat. Also a unicorn of a creative partner.
