- Interview With 2007 OPTUS ONE80 PROJECT winner!

With little to no experience in television and film, burgeoning writer and director Sarah Daggar-Nickson entered OPTUS ONE80PROJECT with hopes of gaining experience in this notoriously challenging and elitist industry.

But when her riveting three minute entry Dream Life, (which follows the unraveling of seemingly 'perfect' family) took out the coveted spot, a whole new journey started for this hot new talent.  As part of her prize, Sarah worked with producers at MTV to develop her pilot into a full-length drama to screen on the network and also via the Optus Zoo mobile portal.  

Now that her pilot is in production and offers are streaming in, Sarah takes a retrospect look at her win, and offers some advice to greenhorn writers, producers and directors pursuing their big break.
