About mAXX

Maxx Corkindale is an Australian Cinematographer who is able to work between styles and genres, switching easily between Film & TV projects to Music Video and Documentary.

His recent work includes Rolf de Heer's latest feature "The Survival of
Kindness", which was In Competition at Berlinale in 2023, and the breakout Shudder Feature "You’ll Never Find Me", by Indianna Bell and Josiah Allen.

The hybrid Documentary/Drama "The Speedway Murders" is now screening on Netflix.

Maxx is also responsible for the ABC Doco series "Eat The Invaders", and an episode of the ABC dramedy "Aftertaste", and 2nd Unit Cinematography on both the Cannes/Netflix hit "The Stranger", and the BBC/HBOMax series "The Tourist".

Maxx filmed with director Molly Reynolds for four years to create the AACTA-winning feature documentary "My Name is Gulpilil" - esteemed actor David Gulpilil’s life story - which he counts as a career highlight.

Maxx has shot two ARIA-nominated music videos for the Australian hiphop group Hilltop Hoods; "Cosby Sweater" and "Exit Sign". He thoroughly enjoys the creative freedom and expression that this genre provides.

Maxx’s short film work is highlighted by "Welcome to Iron Knob", which won Best Cinematography at the St Kilda Film Festival, was nominated for an AACTA for Best Short Film, and recently won the AACTA Short Film of the Decade.

His Cinematography on director Sean Lahiff’s "Smashed" was rewarded with a Gold ACS award and the short film screened at Berlinale, Sitges, and the Sydney and Adelaide Film Festivals.

Maxx loves telling stories - be they fictional or personal - through framing and lighting. So much can be said through a picture, that words cannot do justice to.
