About Us

Michael McMahon and Tony Ayres have positioned Big and Little Films Pty Ltd as one of Australia’s most exciting independent production companies working in feature films, documentary and television drama. Between them, they have written, directed and produced films which have won prestigious awards both in Australia and internationally. Along the way, the company has forged strong working relationships with many of the key players in the Australian and International film and television industries.

The strength of Big and Little Films is that the company is a genuine and committed creative partnership between a writer/script editor/director and a lawyer/producer. This complementary range of skills gives the company the capacity to generate attractive ideas, develop these ideas into high quality scripts and place these projects into diverse sectors of the market.

In 2008, the company continues to develop and finance its ambitious slate of feature films, documentaries and television projects for the Australian and International markets, working with some of Australia’s most talented writers and directors.

In 2008 Big and Little Films joined forces with Chapman Pictures, Panckhurst Productions and Cicada Films to form Matchbox Pictures, an umbrella rights, management and sales company. Follow us on Twitter
