Danimations duo Dan Monceaux and Emma Sterling are home in Adelaide after three months producing and presenting their work internationally.

Expanding their experimental screen experience, Supermarket, the pair also spent a month shooting a reggae mystery documentary in Canada, Jamaica and the USA.

The new film is currently in post-production as Supermarket's debut at the Mercury Cinema approaches. All SA-Film members are invited to a free screening of Supermarket on August 9th (see top right).

IFTPA-SA has been launched as an initiative by SA-Film in response to a perceived need by film & TV producers whose films total individual budgets do not exceed $250,000.00.

The Carmilla Hyde website is up and very impressive indeed! Take a look. In addition, Joshua Hackett, a student in Doco studies at UNISA recently shot a 6 1/2 min doco titled Carmilla Hyde, a Look Inside.

He interviewed Fiona DeCaux and other producers together with Anni Lindner (pictured) the lead. Interlaced with footage from the film, the short was entered into the Unisa doco awards.

Out of 65 entries, it won the top award "Highest production values" and also the Peoples Choice Award. Congratulations to all involved on the website, progress and to Joshua for the behind the scenes special. Hopefully, we can get hold of it to show on the site.
