Popcorn Taxi’s regular, non-competitive screenings program features a smorgasbord of local and international independent film and video works. Screenings range from feature films, documentaries, television, and short films. Founded in November 1999 by independent filmmakers Gary Doust and Matt Wheeldon, Popcorn Taxi has since presented more than 350 film screening events (and counting).
What makes Popcorn Taxi unique is the focus in these forums on the filmmakers’ craft and careers rather than tabloid-like gossip. The aim is to explore why the filmmakers made the choices they did and how they brought their visions to the screen. The guests are usually Producers, Directors, Editors, Cinematographers, Writers, Visual Effects Supervisors, Designers, Composers and Actors.
Recognised by the Australian Film Institute with the (AFI) Byron Kennedy Award for ‘outstanding creative enterprise in the Australian Film Industry’ and recently awarded the Inside Film award, Popcorn Taxi’s has a commitment to developing the most innovative, entrepreneurial film event in Australia.
