DigiSPAA: guerrilla greatness

Digital feature film competition DigiSPAA is still open for entries for 2009. Elika Bahramrad spoke with judge Daniel Scharf and last year’s winner Jason Byrne.

Now in its fifth year, DigiSPAAprovides an opportunity for non-Government funded low-budget digital filmmakers from Australia and New Zealand to showcase their work and find opportunities that might have been otherwise denied to them.

Romper Stomper producer and DigiSPAA judge Daniel Scharf says the competition has a tremendous role in the industry’s cultural and educational development, through encouraging the new generation of low-budget digital filmmakers to submit their films.
