When Netflix announced it had commissioned Clickbait last year, director Matt Richards began lobbying co-creator Tony Ayres, Matchbox Pictures and Film Victoria to seek a director’s attachment.
That persistence paid off and the filmmaker started work on the Melbourne-based production two weeks ago, shadowing Ben Young, who is directing two episodes of the eight-part, Us-set thriller.
Richards will work on the show on-and-off until early April, fitting around his day job as a moving image designer at the National Gallery of Victoria.
“I really wanted the opportunity to work on a high stakes adult drama and pushed hard to get the attachment,â€. says Richards, who had an attachment on the ABC’s children’s series Tomorrow, When the War Began and has directed the short dramas First Contact, Rabbit and the Screen Australia Hot Shots-funded The Disappearance of Willie Bingham.
“Ben and the Clickbait team have been incredibly open and welcoming.
