Ab Film Review & The Last New Wave

Almost a year ago, Perth filmmakers Kori Reay-Mackey and Dan Thom launched a gofundme campaign for their short film, Residue. Now, a year on, Residue is complete and finalised, and having seen the final cut, I can say it's been worth the wait. Way back before cameras were rolling, Andrew caught up with Kori and Dan to talk about their work and what they had planned for Residue. You can listen to that interview here (apologies for the poor audio). Now, after the film has wrapped, Andrew catches up with Kori and Dan once again to talk about the making of the film and what they learned. It's a long interview, but full of great insights into what goes into making a short film. Support The Curb on Patreon, and make sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

One of the joys of watching films for the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival, is that you're inevitably presented with some magical, hidden gem of cinema. It just so happens that the first of many interviews that will be coming over the next few weeks for this years fest is for one of the finest Australian films of the year - Looby.Looby is a documentary about Sydney-born artist Keith Looby and the relationship his art has with politics at large, and the fires that rage between art galleries. Andrew caught up with producers Sean Murphy and Merilyn Alt, as well as co-director Iain Knight to discuss how the documentary came about and what the process of working alongside some volatile subjects was like.Make sure to pencil this film in your calendar and do not miss the world premiere of Looby at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival on July 27th.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
