After 21 Years KOJO celebrates 21st Feature with The Lucky One

Adelaide-based KOJO is toasting two 21st celebrations in one with the star-studded Adelaide premiere of THE LUCKY ONE tomorrow (Thursday) night.

The Adelaide premiere of the Hollywood feature film directed by South Australia’s own Scott Hicks will be held at Event Cinemas Marion and marks Kojo’s 21st feature as well as the 21st birthday of the local company.

The film’s star Zac Efron will be in attendance, as Director Scott Hicks personally campaigned for the Hollywood heartthrob’s attendance in his home town.

KOJO’s Chief Executive Loewn Steele and company directors Dale Roberts and Marty Pepper along with Head of Post Kate Butler will attend this A List event, which is sure to be filled with the who’s who of Adelaide.

The KOJO team can’t wait to show their home town what they have been working on.

KOJO had the privilege of working on post-production for this feature film, marking its 6th collaboration with Scott Hicks. KOJO has been fortunate to work with Hicks over the past 14 years.

KOJO Partner and the film’s VFX Supervisor and Colourist Marty Pepper says it is always a fantastic journey. KOJO ran the editorial, colour grade and over 150 VFX shots for THE LUCKY ONE from its Kent Town studios, in addition to Mr Pepper attending the shoot in New Orleans.

Mr Pepper attended the world premiere in Sydney on Monday night on behalf of KOJO and personally supervised the final check of the film before it had its first screening.

Marty said the audience response was electric.

“It was a real thrill to see THE LUCKY ONE with an audience that really ‘got’ the film,” he said.
