Community radio generally has an outsider feel to it, relying on volunteers and modest public funds to keep it going with many segments shining lights on stories, ideas and topics mainstream media simple can not. It is honest radio and the station with the longest history of radical ideas to come out of Melbourne, continues to be the sounds of 3CR.

Call Me Dad is a story about men who have perpetrated, or are at risk of perpetrating, family violence. Working closely with the director, primarily as a Production Assistant, we followed these men over several months as they attempt to change themselves through a weekly behavioural change program. This was my first involvement with a long-term doco being produced for Tv. It was intensely moving to see these men changing as we filmed them, and incredible to see how the finished doco impacted others to looking to make change in their lives too.
