Dykes on Bikes® Sydney: An origin story with Kate Cornish
Join Kate Cornish, Tilly Robba and Steph Jowett as they speak to Jarrad Seng about the ideas behind their documentary film - 'Dykes on Bikes® Sydney: An origin story' and why they wanted to make it.
Dykes on Bikes Sydney is Australia’s longest-running female-identified motorcycle club, and one of the country’s oldest LGBTQIA+ community groups. With chapters all over the world, these days, the club is about having a good time with friends and giving back to the community. But things weren't always so recreational. Dykes on Bikes® Sydney emerged in response to gay hate crimes in the 1980s. The group met on weekend evenings to patrol the streets of Sydney and break up the attacks that were happening. From protectors of the streets to Sydney Mardi Gras icons, this project dives into present-day member accounts of their history, why they continue to ride today and continuing their legacy for future generations. A hybrid of a documentary and visual poem, this is a love letter to the Dykes on Bikes® Sydney.

The World of Sports Photography with Canon Ambassador Alisha Lovrich.
Canon Ambassador Alisha Lovrich is just as much an athlete as she is photographer and because of this she has an innate understanding of what the people on the other side of her lens are going through. This allows her to see what other photographers can't and most importantly, gain the trust of her subjects. In this episode Canon NZ host Ben Journee will be chatting to Alisha about how she turned her two passions into an exciting career, and her experiences at some of the biggest sporting events from across the world including Olympic games in Tokyo.
