From the people who brought you property listings comes Avalon Now
It seems Fairfax’s property portal Domain is moving firmly into the world of content marketing – creating this hard hitting drama about the everyday lives of the downtrodden souls living in Sydney’s Northern Beaches – Avalon Now.
Dr Mumbo hopes this issues-based series gets picked up by a commercial network, if just to see whether there are enough striped t-shirts in Sydney to last a 20-episode run.
If you haven’t seen this parody of life on Sydney’s northern beaches, it’s time.

Update March 31: Domain has since clarified the video was created for the Creative Creatures Film Festival by filmmakers Bruce Walters and Felix Williamson, but was watermarked with the Domain logo when it appeared on the Domain website here.
While we love that domain likes the film, It’s not made by them, and they’ve been a bit cheeky putting their bug on it. It was produced for the creative creatures film festival (avalon film festival) by me and Felix Williamson. Here’s the proper link to the film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNXfsXe0bQA

Domain didn’t create Avalon Now. It was created by Bruce Walters and Felix Williamson for the Creative Creatures film festival. Definitely hope it gets picked up by a network.

Having lived in Avalon for nearly 14 years, I can relate to this entirely (especially being a journo there for the local magazine for most of that time). Well done guys, you grabbed the essence of the “village” that didn’t want Baywatch perfectly!
Now do one on Newport and then Palmy. That last one would be a corker!

@Bruce Walters – thanks for the link…. I never knew it existed.. so have sent to my friends on the Northern Beaches.. warning them, of course, to destroy all vertically striped clothing… looks great.

I can’t believe they’re still driving the old Range Rover Sport up there. Heartbreaking.
