Transport Accident Commission: Captain Buckle
For the sixth year running, the TAC Split Second competition has given aspiring filmmakers and content creators aged between 18-30 the chance to submit ideas for a short film, focusing on two themes: driving tired and seatbelt usage.
Led by TABOO, the creators were guided through the filmmaking process, collaborating with TRUCE, MonkeyStack, Manimal and Rumble to help realise their winning ideas. This year’s competition expanded with a prize for young multicultural content creators, fostering fresh perspectives, and providing a platform for more inclusive storytelling. This resulted in the competition's first foray into animation, which featured comedian Zach Ruane from Aunty Donna as the voice of ‘Captain Buckle’. "In some countries like mine (Indonesia), the law does not require backseat passengers to wear a seatbelt so I wanted to target this issue and I hope my peers will treat seatbelt usage and safe driving more seriously here in Australia,” says winner, Olivia Hartanto. TAC Head of Community, Jacqui Sampson says, “We're constantly looking for new, innovative ways to get the road safety message through. Both Rhys and Olivia’s films were so different in their creative approach but equally as powerful in their message. Their creativity has the power to influence the attitudes and behaviours among their peers and make a change in road safety awareness in Victoria.”
