Filmmaker Gillian Leahy appears on ABC News Breakfast to discuss her new "dogumentary" Baxter and Me.

Gillian Leahy in her newest documentary, BAXTER AND ME, raises the question of who really owns who in this heartwarming documentary. Dogs have been associated with humans for millennia, Gill’s idiosyncratic, honest and, indeed, “dogged” examination of her relationships – both canine and human – raises questions about how we relate to the “wild” in dogs as well as to the other (two-legged) animals that inhabit our world.

OUTLET: ABC NEWS

Cinemagoers are usually urged to switch off mobile phones when the lights dim for a movie, but a new app for the vision-impaired will transform their device and film-going experience.

Adelaide woman Sarah Savage said her impairment meant she had never before been to the cinema, and she missed out as well when she and her husband watched TV or movies at home.

"I miss most of the detail, especially if there's lots of darkness," she said.

The MovieReading app detects the point the film is at, via the phone's microphone, and streams a detailed descriptive audio track, which tells the user what is appearing on the big screen.

Tradies hoping to explore the Northern Territory on a working holiday are best placed as refrigeration technicians, plumbers or labourers. If Queensland is more their style, bricklayers, labourers and shopfitters are in luck.

Tim Nieuwenhuis, managing director of Workfast, says apps such as his connect tradespeople with the marketplace and allow them to find work all over the country.
