“Don’t try to be the most interesting person in a room but seek to make other people feel important.”

These are the wise words from Australian photographer, filmmaker, and Curtin graduate Marcus Wong.

While in his final year of studying Screen Arts and Creative Advertising at Curtin University in 2018, Marcus volunteered overseas at the Rafiki Africa Ministries children’s home in Uganda.
