Fabulous new short films unveiled for TEDx Sydney and TEDx Melbourne

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of TEDx events, the thought leadership organisation’s Sydney and Melbourne chapters have each released a unique short film.

Each year, TEDx Sydney commissions a handful of films to play between speakers. This year, the theme of the event is ‘legacy’.

BMF Sydney contributed films in 2015, 2017 and 2018. In keeping with the theme, this year the advertising agency took a slightly different tack, teaming up with Glue Society director Paul Bruty to create DIY.

DIY is a portrait of Colin Taylor, a man who’s lived one hell of a life.

Check out the video below:

BMF creative director Dantie van der Merwe said: “We found Colin by chance, and his story blew us away.

“Colin has built four houses, an ocean-going yacht, a trimaran, and an aeroplane – which he learnt to pilot. And he’s not done. Colin’s final project may be his most interesting one yet.”

Meanwhile, TEDx Melbourne has teamed up with Cummins&Partners to launch its first major event in the 10th anniversary year, called ‘Limitless’.

Featuring a range of high-profile speakers, Limitless explores the question ‘what’s on the other side of impossible’ for humankind, as we combine creativity, collaboration, and ever-evolving technology.

To help launch the event, Cummins&Partners has created a short film inspired by the themes of Limitless, which you can check out below.
