Blood Hollow
QPIX in association with Screen Australia presents a Raw Nerve production, BLOOD HOLLOW. ------------------Everything Leaves a Mark------------------- Set in Australia's colonial past, BLOOD HOLLOW is the story of Tim, a young boy who meets an escaped convict hiding in the bush. When the Convict claims to be his long lost father, Tim must choose between the surrogate father who raised him and the paternal one who abandoned him years earlier. In the process, Tim learns the shocking truth behind his father's disappearance. I was the Cinematographer on this production. It was a very eventful one (be aware of water logged Moreton Bay Fig tree branches!) but thanks to an awesome crew, we pulled together and produced a solid effort! Role: Director of Photography
