The Dreamlife of Georgie Stone - Behind the Scenes

For director Maya Newell, giving the subjects of her documentaries creative input is a liberating experience and one that leads to better outcomes. “At the end of the day, everything that we film, she [Georgie Stone] had control over. She would get the last say in the edit. She could decide what went in the film, what went out of the film, whether we even made a film,” Newell explains. In this behind the scenes video, Newell talks about her process making the documentary, how she surrounds herself with a creative team to assist her and what she hopes audiences will learn from Georgie’s story. The Dreamlife of Georgie Stone is streaming on Netflix from 22 September, 2022. For more interviews and opportunities, head to Screen News: https://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/sc...
