  • We are very lucky to have Jen Mellander join us at First Person Films. She brings over 20 years of design, branding and advertising experience to our company.

  • You can(‘t) clear that? A deep dive into archive clearances.

    Daniel was part of a panel at this year’s ADIC discussing archive clearances, copyright and fair dealing for nonfiction projects.

    It was a comprehensive session, exploring the opportunities and pitfalls of working with archive material. Wonderful to sit alongside industry experts and in particular catch up with the host Catherine Dwyer again. Catherine was one of our researchers on Her Name is Nanny Nellie.

  • Walking the red carpet at the Adelaide Film Festival for the premiere of Her Name is Nanny Nellie.

    The festival was an amazing host, catering to our every need. After three years in the making, it was an honour to share this film with everyone.
