‘Hey Cow’ is a documentary which explores the locals in
Australia. According to Meat and Livestock Australia, there are 27.3 million
cattle in an industry worth over $12 billion. With more cows than people, I
decided that cattle could definitely be considered locals within Australia.
I didn’t have any footage of previous trips, and wasn’t able
to jet set overseas to film a documentary, so instead I decided to explore
something a little closer to home. However, my fear of cows quickly became the
focus of the documentary. My logic is that if I can overcome my intense fear of
cows, I can face any challenges thrown my way.
My ultimate dream job is to travel the world making
documentaries, sharing the lives and stories of people from remote places of
the world with people across the globe. I want to make documentaries that are
interesting and accessible to a wide range of people while also creating
awareness of subject matters often left unspoken of, or unexplored.
