It’s almost graduation time, bring out the beer and celebrations, you’ve earned it! But don’t think it’s going to get an easier. Luckily there is a large amount of resources for you out there. I’ve recently been reading some great interviews and advice for all you graduates and young creatives on Junior; celebrating life at the bottom. It’s not going to be all sunshine and lollypops being a junior in any of the creative fields but you will learn a lot, meet awesome people and should even have a good time although at times very challenging. Junior has heaps of advice and articles from big Creatives of all sorts so definitely check it out. The best piece I was given when starting out was “I’d rather be at the bottom of the ladder I want to climb than to be at the top of the ladder I don’t want to climb”.

Actor Clare Bowen might not be a household name, but after her stunning debut in “The Combination” a long and healthy film career surely beckons..

Where did you grow up & where do you hang your hat?

I grew up all over the place. My parents both worked for Qantas when I was little, and so smuggled me along with them most of the time. Childhood was spent between overseas, Sydney where I went to school, and down the South coast of NSW, Stanwell Park, which was home. I’ve moved further down the coast since and now live on the Minnamurra River.
