Hawke Is Here

I was lucky to work as the stills photographer on this epic Australian project directed by the very talented Emma Freeman. and produced by The Film Company.

Screening on Channel 10 during 2010

As mentioned on SMH.COM.AU

Richard Roxburgh as former PM Bob Hawke, Rachael Blake as Hazel and Asher Keddie as Blanche. If that doesn't get you watching one of the most anticipated telemovies of the year, nothing will. The real Bob Hawke even consulted on the project. Of course he did.


Here are the released stills so far:
