Is life as a bug more futile and disappointing than as a human being?

This is just of the many questions posed in Steven Berhoff's adaptation of Franz Kafka's famous novella, The Metamorphosis.

This video is a teaser trailer to introduce audiences to Gregor Samsa. An ordinary man who inexplicably becomes a monstrous vermin, throwing his and his families life into chaos.

Gregor Samsa is a young man with a bright future. He has served as a soldier, he works hard and is unfalteringly polite. He plans to support his sister’s violin education and keeps his mother and father in the comfort they have become accustomed to in their retirement. Until one day, Gregor oversleeps his morning alarm and discovers he has become a gigantic insect. Feelings of revulsion turn to resentment with horrifying results.

This was a short behind the scenes look at The Street Theatre's upcoming production of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, adapted by Steven Berhoff.

This video shows actor Dylan Van Den Berg working with a suspension harness as he looks for ways to become an insect as his character, Gregor, does in the play.

VIDEO: Video content was a key part of the National Health and Medical Research Council’s (NHMRC) website overhaul, which aimed to simplify the content and design of the site as well as make it one of the most engaging in federal government.

This interview with Professor Andrew Lloyd is one of around half a dozen videos I worked on for NHMRC.

As part of my role as RSPCA NSW Media Liaison, I had the privelage of creating weekly video stories named Short Tails. I was responsible for identifying the story, condutcing interviews, gathering the footage and creating the storyboard. The final edit was completed off-site due to other work pressures of my role.

This is my favourite Short Tail, documenting our trip to regional New South Wales. It was all part of the RSPCA’s efforts to reduce the number of unwanted companion animals in the regional parts of Australia and to improve their overall health.

PODCAST: This is one of several podcasts I organised; selecting the talent, securing the interview, writing the questions and sitting-in on the recording to guide the conversation. These podcasts had to be targeted to a specific audience, content communicators in government, and be engaging and informative. I also wrote the website copy and uploaded the edited file.

PODCAST: This is one of several podcasts I’d pitch, organise, write questions for, record, upload and write the synopsis for.

Starting her career on Myspace, Lola Berry built an audience alongside a growing, though niche, market focusing on nutrition and health products. Though today these can be considered as a standard for most social platforms, for Lola it was quite the opposite and early days for healthy blogging.

PODCAST: This is another powerful podcast I organised and produced discussing how not for profits operate in a global context and how they craft their messaging to be heard in a crowded market.

This week on InTransition we talk to Osama Saeed Bhutta, Director of Communications at Amnesty International and former Head of Communications at Al Jazeera.
