I'm an independent filmmaker. I started making films when I was living in Tasmania and was outraged at the clearfelling of old growth forests for export woodchips. I'm still working on that, specifically now in relation to the practice of largescale aerial spraying of atrazine and other chemicals as part of plantation industry 'world's best' practice. I'm also into making films about sustainability and community.

A moving 30 minute documentary produced in 2001, showing how people's lives are affected by the woodchipping plantation industry in Tasmania. Interviews with those living on the land - organic farmers, retirees and others - about how the clearing and poisoning of land affects them directly, and with people such as eco-tourism operators who tell how sustainable industries are put under threat by the destructive practices of large forestry corporations.
