Jake McCormack is a 15-year-old homeschooled filmmaker from South Australia. He has had a passion for making all genres of short films since early childhood. His interest in filmmaking was expanded when he took a local filmmaking class, which led to him starring in the award-winning short film, The Outside. Jake has since had his own work screened at local film festivals, winning two people’s choice awards, being selected as a finalist in the Junior Category at the Very Short Film Festival, and coming second in the Documentary Category at the StuffIt Student Film Festival. He would love to become an actor when he’s older, but he’ll see where his career choices take him.
