Invisible Boys with Director Nicholas Verso and Cinematographer Jason Hargreaves ACS
In this episode, we dive into Invisible Boys, the Stan original series adapted from Holden Sheppard’s award-winning novel. The story follows four young men navigating identity and sexuality in a coastal country town—a perspective rarely seen on Australian screens. Joining the podcast is Director Nicholas Verso and Cinematographer Jason Hargreaves ACS. We discuss how Nick optioned the book and his journey breaking into directing, the collaborative writing process, and the challenge of helming all ten episodes as the sole director. Nick and Jason break down their approach to coverage and lighting, and we share stories from filming in Geraldton—officially the windiest town in Australia.
