"I first went to Kolperi as a member of a writers lab where we were invited to work on a script and pitch our ideas at the end of the two weeks. I was very pleased when my idea was selected, however I was beyond excited when that script subsequently went into production on location in Kolperi, despite it being at the height of covid restrictions. That experience has been life changing, but I would also say that many other aspects of my Kolperi experience have been equally monumental in my personal life and career. Gaining a deeper connection to country, experiencing a completely different filmmaking mindset, and making lifelong industry friends, are just some of the rewards Kolperi offers. It’s no exaggeration to say that the vast majority of work I do these days is a direct result of the friends and connections I have made in my many trips to Kolperi. Truly, the effect Kolperi has had on my life has been immeasurable."
