Sydney
Tim Maddocks created Maddfilms with the aim of creating market driven films. Having completed a diploma of Film and TV production at North Sydney TAFE. Maddfilms joined forces with Jon Cohen’s Coherent Productions to make Sum of Existence a low budget psychological drama that was sold to the National Nine Network. Since then Tim has worked with writers developing scripts and has twice been short-listed for production funding from the Australian Film Commission (now Screen Australia). To understand the market Tim has attended many International film markets and festivals: Cannes 4 times, the American Film Market (AFM) 3 times, Sundance, Tribeca and Palm Springs along with talks and conferences held by the Screen Producer’s Association of Australia (SPAA) and other industry bodies, and undertaken short courses at AFTRS. During this time Maddfilms was successful in securing funding for the thirty-minute short film Death’s Requiem which has been developed into a feature film called Near Death. He has attached Sales Agents and local distributors to several scripts and has a rounded market knowledge through working with mentors. Maddfilms vision is to transport people from the every day and immerse them in the world of the characters and their story, to create powerful and effective mainstream films, with artistic integrity.
Tim has spent many hours working with friends on a volunteer basis and is well respected within the industry for his taste, dedication and ability.
