Invisible Boys has stuck with me heavily since watching it, especially Hammer! Can I ask from a hands on creative POV what you felt Hammers inner monologue was in the last episode? I think the mirror scene reflected so well the joy and then ultimately the terror and heartbreak he was feeling. And on top of that his family (specifically the stark contrast between his aunt and his mum). And then of course his friends and “girlfriend” too. I just really can’t stop thinking about him (and Zeke UGH) and will take any takes and comments from all angles!

Hello! So glad the show connected with you!

Hammer was such a bittersweet ending and Zach gives such an incredible performance. I wanted him to get everything he wanted and worked so hard all his life to achieve only to discover in that moment that maybe he’d been chasing the wrong things. And I wanted Aunty Doris to be the only real witness to it (it’s the only moment in the show where we’re in the perspective of someone who isn’t one of the four boys). For me his journey particularly and Matt’s (and I guess the whole show) is summed up in Matt’s last words of “I just couldn’t see it”. For me that’s been one of the biggest life lessons. If you can’t imagine something truly happening then it won’t. And I think for hammer, he just couldn’t see it. How could Zeke be part of his afl world? How could he openly embrace that aspect of himself? He just couldn’t reconcile the different parts of himself… at least at this current moment. If the show ever continues, that may change for Hammer…

BTS FACTS: this was all one big take. I just let Zach go for 10 minutes and do whatever he wanted and that’s the place he went to. I wasn’t quite sure what he’d do so I just whispered in the camera operator’s ears what to focus on as Zach ran through all those emotions. The bathroom was also actually at Sabrina’s house and we filmed it while they were setting up the party outside and we waited for it to get dark!

Ok so the truth of this scene - this was something somebody once said to me and it was so nice and kind and meant so much to me at that moment that I knew I had to put it in the show 😅
