Michela Ledwidge of the experimental production house, MOD Films, has been honoured with the Peter Rasmussen Innovation Award at this year's Sydney Film Festival. Many in the CC community will know Michela from her CC-licensed film project, Sanctuary (pictured above), which was one of the first fully-remixable films launched internationally, and which was given specific mention by the Sydney Film Festival jury in grating the award. Michela spent last week hobnobbing with other innovators in film at the first Open Video Conference in New York. For more information, see MOD Film's press release.
