Welcome to the tenth episode of The Brain Game Changer podcast. I am your host Melissa Gough. In this week’s final episode of Season One, we had the wonderful opportunity of speaking with the Creative Director of The Focus on Ability Film Festival Ryan Goodwin.
As it enters its 14th consecutive year, Nova Employment presents this festival, asking filmmakers to “Focus on the Ability” of people with a disability and tell a story on film for the world to see. In this interview, Ryan shares how the opportunity presented itself to work for Nova Employment and how CEO Martin Wren birthed the idea of the festival which has grown tremendously. He talks us through its first years and how it is now globally recognised as one of the largest short film festivals. We discuss some examples of previous films and winners, both here in Australia and overseas, and how you can play your part in creating awareness about such a worthy and wonderful event.
Throughout this interview, it was evident that Ryan is passionate about such an amazing concept that has changed so many lives and created such heartfelt and positive awareness.
