Community to Commercial - Restored Australian Music Videos
Take a trip down memory lane with a newly restored 1987 documentary about community radio stations in Melbourne followed by a mix of independent film clips from bands championed by those stations and others with a more commercial edge.
Lovingly restored by Ray Argall at Piccolo Films from his personal archive (Argall shot many of the originals), this collection will have you tapping your feet and perhaps gasping at familiar – if somewhat fresher – faces! The screening will be followed by a discussion reflecting on the musical landscape of then vs now, and on radio’s position within.
