About Blakground Productions

Blakground is a majority Aboriginal-owned and led production company dedicated to authentic, community-driven storytelling. We specialise in video production, photography, and creative development—bringing First Nations stories to life with integrity and purpose.

Founded in Narrm (Melbourne) by Sianna Catullo (Narungga) and Greg McCann, Blakground was born from a shared vision: to create a space where First Nations people are not only seen on screen but are leading the storytelling behind the scenes.

With years of experience in social impact storytelling, Sianna and Greg have worked across film, fashion, and media, creating powerful campaigns that celebrate culture, resilience, and identity. Through their work at Clothing The Gaps, they saw firsthand how storytelling can drive real change—and why the industry still has a long way to go in ensuring First Nations people have creative control over their own narratives.

"We vision a future where First Nations creatives are leading the way—telling our own stories, on our own terms, in every part of the industry. Representation starts behind the scenes."

At Blakground, we exist to:

  • Elevate First Nations voices—ensuring our stories are told by us, for us.

  • Create safe spaces behind the scenes—where Mob can thrive, learn, and lead.

  • Break barriers in production and media—shaping a more inclusive industry.
     

We believe true representation goes beyond what’s seen on screen. It’s about who’s behind the camera, who’s making the creative decisions, and who’s shaping the narrative. That’s why we’re committed to mentorship, up-skilling, and creating pathways for First Nations people to step into key roles across production.
