BEC BIGNELL
Bec grew up on a farm in Kojonup, in regional Western Australia and has worked in film and media for twelve years, most recently at the ABC (Sydney) as Partnership Executive. She produced the exciting, new female series ‘600 Bottles of Wine’ which premiered on the BBC (UK) and also has multiple performance credits in stage, film and Television. In 2018 Bec was named in Australian Financial Review 100 Women of Influence and she’s currently participating in the Australian Rural Leadership Program, as sponsored by Telstra.
Bec is also the Associate Producer for the Visible Farmer. The Visible Farmer film project is criss-crossing the country to discover the untold stories of the gutsy women behind our food and fibre, and the vital, innovative role they play. From remote outback stations to urban market gardens, it’s a journey that will change our perception of who a farmer is.
And as if that wasn't enough, she is also writing, producing and acting in the upcoming web film series, "Raindance", which will shine a spotlight on regional Australia.
