Air Pig Productions is a new company from former Screen Australia investment manager, Sally Browning, and underwater DOP Dean Cropp. They have a new teen marine ob-doc called Blue Zoo going into production, and a downright unusual production partnership with David Atkins Enterprises, better known as the producer of theatrical extravaganzas such as Hot Shoe Shuffle and Stomp.
Blue Zoo is a thirteen part observational documentary which will start filming on the north coast of New South Wales in October, with a cast of eight 14 – 16 year olds drawn equally from Australia and Ireland. It will be shot in a marine animal rescue park (which remains un-named due to ABC editorial policy) and on the surrounding coast.
