Tin Can Island Productions

I have recently completed a grueling shoot in the rainforests of Far North Queensland. Abigail was sent as our guide, to help ferry us around, but her involvement was so much more. The whole team described her as 'exceptional', 'a ray of sunshine' and from the word go, 'very much a member of the team'. She's friendly, patient, hard-working, practical and knowledgeable. On a tight and challenging project we couldn't have asked for more - she gets a full recommendation from me.

Master of Ceremonies

Job description
 

Children need the freedom to explore the world around them on their own -- to look under rocks, capture butterflies, and allow their minds to wander freely. This has historically been the life of a child. It is how children have learned to take control of their own lives, at least in their own world of fantasy. Nature Play Queensland supports these ideals.


My roles
Introduce guest speakers and panel of experts during Nature Play Queensland presentation to an audience of 110 parents, teachers and students. Lead and moderate 30 minute panel discussion encouraging questions from the audience not just panel members.
