About

Meet film producers and co-founders of Like a Photon Creative Nadine Bates and Kristen Souvlis and hear the story behind the films. They’ll discuss how a local, women-led animation studio broke on to the international stage and kept their commitment to creating in Brisbane.

Short film Jarli 2021 (8 mins) will screen before the In Conversation.

Ingenious engineer Jarli is trialling her latest masterpiece: an aircraft made from scrap metal. Testing then recalibration is an important part of Jarli’s scientific process and with her mum’s fancy hairbrush plugged into the turbo ‘incabulator’, it’ll soar this time for sure. Director Chantelle Murray’s animation is produced by Like a Photon Creative in collaboration with the Royal Australian Air Force aiming to inspire young girls to pursue their dreams in STEM.
