Loboc Children’s Choir documentary, directed and edited by Matthew Masyuko.
Another one of the Bohol Study Tour projects. I was camera operator for this one. These kids are all lovely, and are about to come to Melbourne on a tour of their own.
Created in February 2015 on RMIT’s Bohol study tour. I directed and edited this project, produced by Masha Prokudina, all crew roles Matt Masyuko, Bo Dechphant, and Louis Bergemann, who also graded and mastered this. EP Jenny Weight.
CV and Networking
Twitter and I have never really got along. Despite being someone who generally likes to talk a lot, I’ve never been particularly keen on the ever-expanding noise that is Twitter. But now I’m using hashtags like #ifyouaretheone #girl7iloveyou. Yep, I’ve been live-tweeting Chinese dating shows, because I’m all about building a presence. In fact, I’m tweeting right now.
So much networking right now, which is nice because my entire mid-semester break will be spent editing – editing projects, editing my LinkedIn, editing a show reel together.

An audio documentary about skating in Melbourne
Skate Like A Girl is a project I made as part of Non-Fiction Project, a subject for RMIT’s Master of Media program in 2014. I created this projects with my classmate Bridget and Tom, with my role being working on the overlying narrative, photography, audio recording and editing.
This is a segment I wrote/produced/edited for Walk In My Shoez, a final year television show project for the Media undergrad at ACU.
Excuse the low-quality voiceover - I was not able to get the footage with the final voiceover and so did my own dub.
Once again, spite concurs all.
I KNEW it! (fricken space wizards…)

“There’s a lot to be said for making people laugh. Did you know that that’s all some people have? It isn’t much, but it’s better than nothing in this cockeyed caravan.”
This is literally what I tried to do through my entire time at college, and yet my teachers still yelled at me about not trying to ham-fist meaning into my art an animations.
I’ve watched so many Good For You ™ movies, so many that people recommended like prescriptions.
Not a single one of those, not a single one, gave me the emotional response of, say, Pacific Rim.
I don’t care what you think of that specific example, I just want to say that sometimes stupid escapist ridiculousness is exactly what the world needs.
“People don’t want the truth! They want opiates! They’re just sheep! They don’t care about my Important Meaningful Insights!”
Yeah, no, fuck off. My life is kind of difficult, I’ve been suicidal, I’m hella poor, I’m mentally ill, things aren’t rosy. I don’t want your fucking Saving Private Ryans. I don’t want your Brokeback Mountains.
I want Pacific Rim. I want The Rocketeer. I want Enchanted.
Because my life contains enough truth. Too much truth.
Take me away from that truth. Don’t dice it up, garnish it, and serve it back to me.
Take me away. That’s the real challenge. That’s the only art I really want anymore.

Loboc Children’s Choir yesterday. They sang some super incredible complex stuff, and then we had a chill with some Tay-Tay. #RMITBohol15
A monster has been created. Went to Candabong High School in Anda, and was absolutely swamped by kids. I’ve had a taste for fame and I love it. #RMITBohol2015 #thanksfortheselfiestickhollyd #rmitabroad
Study tours versus field trips
On a study tour, you listen to a local expert talk about how many frogs are in the pond. On a field trip, you’ve got your gumboots on. You’re in the pond, counting the frogs yourself.
We went to church this morning. Georgie met this little boy who was fascinated by her camera.
Then we went outside to do our drone shoot for our client. Here’s Matthew hooking up the go pro.
As you can see, we were mobbed by kids. These kids speak great English! They instantly understood the concept although they’d never seen a drone (let alone Georgie’s selfie stick).
Then they saw my iPad, so we sat on the grass and drew pictures.
(Rrrebet! Rrrebet!)
