The importance of side projects: Join Neil Triffett as he explores the many side projects that have led him down multiple creative rabbit warrens - such as the one little path that lead him to the production of feature film 'EMO The Musical'
While some of Neil's side projects have been short-lived and "dead ends" others have led to interesting new ideas, important areas of enquiry and bigger projects. Neil will share a slew of real-life side projects, some which went places, some which didn't, to discuss how the 'small' projects can be such an integral part of your practice.
Neil Triffett's debut feature film EMO The Musical premiered at the Melbourne International Film Festival, screened at the Berlinale, Edinburgh Film Festival, and Toronto's Inside Out Film Festival, and has been available world wide on Netflix and locally on Stan. He has made acclaimed short films, performed at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and is currently in development on several feature films and tv shows. He also contributes to several Youtube channels. It is of little wonder Neil was awarded the Most Outstanding Undergraduate Student at the Victorian College of the Arts in 2011!
