Duke Vin and the Birth of Ska
Duke Vin and Count Suckle arrived in the UK in 1954 and Duke Vin would soon set up the first sound system in the UK. They brought with them a sound that was sweeping across Jamaica and would later change the face of music in the UK. This was the sound of Ska!

Koorie Justice
Wulgunngo Ngalu Learning Place is part of the Victorian Government’s response to the findings of the Royal Comminsion into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. The program aims to reduce the over representation of indigenous people in Australia’s prisons.
This is a promotional video I made for the centre to use to promote the amazing work they are doing and also forms part of a wider remit to run filmmaking workshops at the centre.
