"...Erryn wanted to make his story for a long time. In his film, 'Madeline’s Last Eye Test', a young girl experiences something unexpected at the Optometrist. “It was fantastic being given the resources and opportunity to make the film,” he said. “There’s nowhere else you can really go in this part of Sydney to get this support.”
Beyond the launch of Springboard, Erryn will be presenting about his experience and the challenges of first-time filmmakers in Western Sydney, at Oz-Made Films, a seminar presented by ICE later this month exploring opportunities for filmmaking in Western Sydney.
Springboard is the first project of Parramatta Screening, a program supported by Parramatta City Council and the NSW Film and Television Office which will see a whole host of initiatives to support the emergence of new skills and talent in film in the Parramatta area and Western Sydney more generally. ICE also receives support from Arts NSW and the Australia Council for the Arts.
“Parramatta Screening is about a three year boost to our local film talent, and Springboard is only the beginning,” said Lena Nahlous, Director of ICE and Switch. We’re really proud and amazed at the quality of films made by first-time filmmakers, and the dedication of these artists to their craft. We are seeing great connections too, with many of the film soundtracks featuring local young musicians who produced their first recordings at Switch,” said Lena."
