From a boy who attended high school in Croydon to a now Oscar Award winning cinematographer, Greig Fraser has represented his local community on one of the biggest world stages.
The Luther College alumni has brought home Australia’s next Academy Award for his work on the blockbuster film ‘Dune’.
Although now based in Los Angeles, in an interview with the ABC Fraser said he was proud to bring home the award to the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
“I was doing it specifically for the eastern suburbs, for the Lilydale line,” he said in the interview.
Fraser’s resume also includes work on the films ‘The Batman’, ‘Lion’ and ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’. He also won an Emmy Award for the television series ‘The Mandalorian’ in 2020.
