The conversations of life

Want to star in your own film? This documentary project wants FEARLESS people 75-plus

0

Screenworks and Feros Care are searching for 10 people aged 75 or over in the Ballina, Byron or Tweed Shires of NSW or Coolangatta in QLD for a series of short documentary films as part of a new project called FEARLESS.

Whether you’ve always wanted to get a tattoo or fly on the trapeze or if you’re already a dedicated ocean swimmer or in training for your next triathlon, each participant will be asked to film their challenge guided by professional filmmakers and with support from a friend, family member, volunteer or carer.

The footage will then be edited along with a filmed interview to create the final film.

Shaking off stereotypes around ageing

The films will be unveiled at an exclusive red-carpet VIP event later this year and also distributed online and at film festivals.

If you’d like to take part – or you have a family member or friend you think should get involved – why not apply?

FEARLESS is happening between early September and mid-November 2018. Applications close on Sunday 12th August 2018.

You can find more information about how to apply here or contact the Screenworks office direct on (02) 6681 1188 or coord@screenworks.com.au.
