Inspired Minds|Inspired Minds: One to One with writer & filmmaker Scott Millwood Episode
Scott Millwood recently completed a feature documentary called “Whatever Happened to Brenda Hean?”. The film tells the story of one of the first leaders of an environmental political party in the world, whose fight to save Tasmania’s Lake Pedder, led to her mysterious disappearance in 1972.
The Australian filmmaker Scott Millwood has been living in Germany for more than five years. He was born in Tasmania in 1973 and initially studied law at the University of Melbourne, specialising in international law and human rights.
In 2003, Millwood wrote and directed the award winning “Wildness,” a one hour documentary about two Tasmanian wilderness photographers’ whose work marked the emergence of the environmental movement in Australia. He was also writer and director of “Gather” a New Media installation in which portraits of people in various landscapes were projected onto thirty screens during the opening of a landmark Melbourne building.
In this week’s Inspired Minds, Scott Millwood talks to Breandáin O’Shea about his latest film, “Whatever Happened to Brenda Hean?”, his journey to filmmaking after law studies and how Tasmanians vary from other Australians.
