Interview at Screen Futures YouthFest

Screen Futures YouthFest was a great event at Fed Square on Monday.  I went to a panel discussion with Fiona Woods, Doug McLeod, Bernadette O’Mahony and Holly Tossi; a highly informative, great session – they were all very generous about sharing their experiences.

But in all the sessions, including my own, what really impressed me was the audience. They were so passionate, intelligent and reflective; some questions could have set up great topics for debates and further study.

I was interviewed by a couple of different groups afterwards; here’s the interview with Tori from SynMedia.
