Why First Nations Stories Need to Be on TV and Film

06 Jan 2025 | 28 mins

Description

Today we're joined by Travis Cardona, the Director of First Nations at NIDA. 

Travis gave Matty his first media job, so today we share the story of how our own Matty Mills got discovered!

Plus how First Nations stories are now becoming more prevalent in film + TV, and how NIDA is helping share more First Nations stories. 

As well as how Travis experienced typecasting during his career as an actor, and why diversity is so important. 

Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
