In the running for international film awards
One Whistle -Brad Turton & Sasha (canine lead)
Three filmmakers who entered short films in the 2018 Mud and Saltwater Short Film Fest are strutting their stuff on the red carpet, with their films shortlisted for international awards.
Filmmakers Georgie Barne’s and Brad Turton’s wonderful short film ‘One Whistle’ stars canine Sasha and Brad Turton. Russell Robert’s film has an assortment of talented musicians in Broome all hankering for a feed of salmon washed down with a beer.
Russell Robert’s quirky short film is about salmon fishing Broome style.
Georgie Barnes, a first time filmmaker made her first film with Brad Turton using an iPhone, and the judges around
the world have applauded their efforts.
Congratulations Georgie Barnes, Brad Turton, Sasha the beloved dog, Russell Roberts and your talented cast.
Broome filmmakers rocking their socks!

In 2018 the Mud and Saltwater Short Film Fest screened ‘Surviving the Kimberley’ filmed and produced by adventurer Michael Atkinson. Outback Mike started a new adventure today, in a dug out canoe he carved himself, along the North Queensland coast. Really recommend you watch Mike’s adventures, which he will film himself and make into another award winning feature. Great guy you gotta watch it 🐊 🌊 🛶 🎥
Thanks Jodie Bell sounds like a must watch

Firestarter is a deeply moving documentary about Bangarra Dance Theatre and founders Stephen, David and Russell Page; it’s also about the value of the arts and the people who make it.
