Shooting Complete on Words From The City
1 June 2006
Shooting is finally complete on the feature documentary film ‘Words from the City’, produced by Philippa Campey and co-directed by Natasha Gadd and Rhys Graham for Film Camp. After six months of filming in different cities around Australia with artists including Downsyde, Koolism, Wire My Cuz, Hilltop Hoods, TZU, Layla, Trey and many more, we’re heading into the edit suite. The film is shaping up to be a compelling portrait of the lives and trials behind some of the most important voices emerging on the Australian cultural landscape
