We are Wardandi
A short documentary featuring local Wadandi Cultural Custodians and Undalup Board members, Wayne 'Wonitji’ Webb and Iszaac 'Waalitj’ Webb. These guys are walking books of knowledge on Wadandi Boodja (Salt Water People's Country) both having so much experience and knowledge of Boodja where they work, live and walk.
The Noongar culture has survived over 50,000 years with knowledge being handed down to enable its people to accurately describe many of the traditional and ongoing cultural values of Boodja.
The Wadandi/Pibulmun Boodja (Motherland) extends from Yallingup (Place of Holes) to Talinup, Augusta (Place of Reeds) inland to Nannup (The Stopping Place) and as you pass over the Goorbillyup (Blackwood River) Pibulmun Country runs from Mileyanup to Gennalup (Hay River Crossing).
We hope you enjoy this film with Wayne and Zac promoting Continuous Cultural Connection to Country.

Marc & Lisa's Cave Adventure
For Marc's birthday this year we headed out of town for the day and we decided to check out Ngilgi Cave in Western Australia's south west region.
Because of the low light situation in the cave I didn't use the VG10 for this one. I have a little sony handycam - hdr cx350 that I use for snorkeling and its better in lowlight than the VG10 so I used that instead to film this. There is still a considerable amount of grain in some places though, and some areas depicted in the video are fairly dark, so please bear with it. Most of the picture quality is fine.
This was also intended to be a fun video - so don't expect oscar winning material. As I said; it was Marc's birthday and we wanted to enjoy ourselves :)
