Cody Greenwood has spent the last decade working alongside some of Australia's most prominent storytellers to create authentic and thought-provoking content.
Her documentary and short films have garnered international acclaim at festivals, including documentary 'Under the Volcano' which premiered at SXSW and was nominated for 'Best Australian Documentary' at the Sydney Film Festival. Distributed globally by Universal Pictures, the film tells the story of the legendary Beatles producer Sir George Martin and AIR Studios, the recording studio he built in the Caribbean in the 1980's.
She also produced the award winning documentary 'Girl Like You', which follows the raw and intimate journey of a young woman as she watches her partner transition from male to female. The documentary is streaming on Netflix and won the Australian Writer's Guild and Australian Screen Editors Award for best broadcast documentary.
Cody is currently in production on two Stan Original documentaries, Otto on Otto and Pussy Wagon. Both films are slated for release in 2024.
While her focus to date has been on documentaries, Cody is expanding her drama slate with the development of the feature film 'Birthright' with director Zoe Pepper. The script was the recipient of Screenwest's premium West Coast Visions $750,000 production grant, and is filming February 2024. The film will be released by Madman in 2025.
Cody was the recipient of Screenwest's bespoke mentorship program 'Breaking The Celluloid Ceiling'. She is currently being mentored by industry heavyweights Liz Watts (Animal Kingdom, The King) and Sue Maslin (The Dressmaker, Japanese Story). Likewise, she has been involved in mentoring young Australian producers as part of her commitment to support and guide the next generation of local talent.
Cody began her career in London, before moving to LA to join production company The Masses, which was founded by the late Heath Ledger. While there, she production managed music videos, short film content for the Museum of Contemporary Art and developed TV projects for leading US Networks including MTV. Returning to Australia, she production managed 15 documentaries by first time indigenous filmmakers for National Indigenous Television (NITV), which remains a career highlight.
Cody is a strong advocate for the Australian screen industry and has served on as Co-President of Women In Film & TV (WIFT) Western Australia and on the Advisory Board of the Screen Forever Conference.
