Kind Words from Graham Bauer - Creative Director at Dodgshun Medlin
Andrew Ferguson is one of Australia’s most accomplished and respected niche storytellers and filmmakers. He has produced edgy, gold award-winning work for international corporations, ad-agencies, indigenous groups, museums and children. His work in progress includes two feature films and two high-end documentaries, although in the mainstream, you might know him best for his outstanding work on the ABC series Grand Designs. Andrew’s special focus is on developing filmmaking talent in regional Victoria. Andy is The Master, with an astonishing ability, in whatever medium, to spin a fascinating, true, and often, socially-challenging yarn.
Note from Graham: ‘I am a mariner. I have survived close to the worst the sea has to offer. I have seen all the sea films. Master and Commander, Hornblower, Life of Pi, the Robert Redford thing and all the rest and always have been sadly disappointed. What you see is not a shred of the truth of it. Then I saw Andy’s film about life on the historic vessel Polly Woodside, depicting life at sea as it was, done on a shoestring budget, and it’s exactly like it is. I was left shaken. What a privilege it has been to have him on our side.

Life in a Day film
Life in a Day films allow you to have an intimate collection of special moments...
The magic of childhood captured through your child's eyes and dreams. Wisdom and stories from our elders - Grandma and Pa. Nerves and joy from a soon to be mother, or bride, or graduate. A special hello to overseas relatives.
Life in a Day captures the secret, whispered thoughts of our inner world and intimate moments in a visually poetic way, for you to have forever.
With years of experience as a filmmaker and with the latest technology, let Andrew create something unique for you and or your loved ones to cherish. Andrew will reveal and visualise a deeper more intimate postcard of your life in a day. One day to chat and film, and one day to edit. Then presented on DVD, QuickTime, or and any format you wish. Includes outtakes.
If you would like a chat or a quote call Andrew 61 3 (0) 407 534 020
Please enjoy a recent 'Life in a Day' film.
