HATTIE MORGAN
On New Year's Day in 2015, I woke up fully clothed with my shoes on the pillow next to me. I decided I had to do something even MORE fun with the year ahead. I couldn't afford to go to film school, so I figured I'd just get out there and do it. I wanted to teach myself everything about shooting, editing, directing, and most importantly storytelling. I released a quick film each week for the entire year. 52 Flicks.

Dion is a sculptor - he creates big, dynamic works in steel. I visited his studio to chat to him about his work, but we ended up just chatting about life. In this vid, he recognises the hardest things about being a parent - karma.

50:52 Flicks : Reenie Goes to Tinsel Town
​
I'm mad for Christmas. I love everything about it. I took Mum (in character as "Reenie") to our local K-mart to play out this obsession for me. We were asked to leave.
