SILLY GOOSE PRODUCTIONS
Mainlanders is the brainchild of Tasmanian writer, producer, and director, Jacob Collings, and recent Tasmanian import, writer, producer and director, Hannah Brooks.
Jacob and Hannah founded Silly Goose Productions in May 2023. The pair joined forces when they realised, they shared the same vision of creating laugh-out-loud comedy with a side order of social commentary.
At Silly Goose Productions we believe comedy is the best remedy to what ails us, and Mainlanders will tackle issues such as housing affordability, education, health, the environment, and access to services in the regions.
Jacob is a nipaluna-based filmmaker and director. He is interested in capturing lesser-documented stories in a beautiful way and giving voice to under-represented communities.

His experiences in the art department, documentary, and drama have culminating in a directing style that is honest, kind, & effective.
