Questions. As creatives, we are constantly asking and uncovering questions to find worthwhile stories to tell.
Especially when it comes to documentary filmmaking, many questions are required of us to ensure we are
interrogating stories that are important for us to tell the world. When we find one of these stories, it’s like the
clock has turned itself back and we are inquisitive little four-year-olds, asking hundreds of questions to satisfy
our curiosity on the subject. However, it takes a lot of work, dedication and support to be afforded the luxury
of slipping into this filmmaking mindset. We need people around us that allow these story gems to be explored
and developed – people who allow a space to freely shout ideas, no matter how crazy, until you uncover the
perfect subject or way to deliver your idea.
Bringing people’s lives, truths and experiences to the screen is always a hard undertaking – are you doing
the right thing telling their tale? Are you being accurate to their truth and story? Are you telling the world all
they need to know? All these questions are running through our heads from the conception of the idea till the
screening of the documentary. It is only through the support from all those around us that we are able to get
through all these stages and present everyone with a film. Thank you to all the families that have supported
us, without your belief and willingness to let us throw ourselves into the ever-changing creative industries, we
would not be where we are today. Thank you to all our teaching staff who have, over the last three years,
nurtured our growth into the creatives we are today. Thank you to the friends and film families we have made
throughout our time at QUT. We cried, struggled, laughed, celebrated, fought for ideas together and we never
stopped supporting one another. This is the start of our exciting careers, so please keep believing in yourselves
and each other and again, thank you to everyone who helped make these films what they are.

Every single one of us who decided to begin a career in film are dreamers. For that we cannot thank you
enough for encouraging and supporting our dreams. Many of you – staff, friends and family – know the
blood, sweat and tears we have shed to make tonight possible. It’s through all your love and support that we
have been able to make these stories come to life on the silver screen. With your help we have been able
to discuss the challenges of parenthood, document the lives of Incels, crash golf carts, ruin a funeral, show
emotion on stage, plan a trip to a very windy mountain top, debate which twin is which, steal a ghost and
avoid piano practice.
It’s all there on the screen; the hard work of those striving to understand the story and character, to capture
clean sound and fantastic lighting, to get that amazing shot, to make well timed edits and craft wonderful sets
and costumes. The struggle of spending hours wrangling footage, keeping to schedule and feeding an entire
crew. We even battled to get the performances we needed and to complete the mountains of paperwork.
Without the advice, support and lessons of the staff we would not have achieved the level of quality on display
tonight. Without the loving support of family and friends we would not have come this far. So once again,
thank you for believing in us. Thank you for helping us begin an exciting career in film.
Still dreaming,

Animation is hard to explain, man. No one can understand weight-painting, AOVs or edge flow over a family
gathering. But when the film is done, the work speaks for itself. We can create whatever we want, and to
have such freedom at our fingertips is the sole reason we stick through the hours lost when Maya crashes. But
we never would have made it this far without the people we’ve had the pleasure to work with, and I’d like to
thank them all personally on behalf of the third year animation cohort this year. To Sorin, thank you for being
our creative mentor, guiding these films through visuals and story, and for organising so many inspiring guest
speakers to visit us. To Bree, thank you for managing our team and enforcing our deadlines (even when we
kept having to push them back). Thank you Rangi, for joining us this semester and opening our eyes to the
marvels of pipeline management, Python scripting and stories from the industry. To Paul, thank you for working
behind the scenes and taking on our subject feedback, teaching us so well last year... and for giving us lollies.
Thank you Chris, for getting us into rendering, visual effects and being another person we could run to for
advice. To Charles, thanks for talking with us even though we were in the room during your own classes this
year, and for teaching us the values of pre-production.
There’s also much to be said of the immense talent of the student body but I’ll keep it brief. Our two directors,
Grant and Georgia, have been working sleepless nights in the labs along with our production manager Joyce,
technical director Mike and sound designer Sanha. The entire team has triumphed thanks solely to the effort
that has been placed into these productions and I’m very proud of what has been achieved.
See you all again in the real world.
