Debbie
Thoy is the producer, writer and director of the documentary
"Devils on the Verandah". She is also the daughter
of the property owners of Boomajaril where wild Tasmanian
Devils interact with the residents. An experience she is blessed
to be a part of.
Debbie
started her own production company Wizard
Corporation Productions in 2005. The driving force in
this decision was to produce a documentary about the Devils
she had come to adore. An animal lover, it breaks her heart
to think that the Tasmanian Devil could be extinct in possibly
25 years. This documentary and program is a very personal
project, so important that it be presented right, she is supplying
most of the funding herself.
She
grew up and lives in Perth, Western Australia. She has been
involved in some form of entertainment all her life, whether
it be dancing, sport promotion, acting or making films. Tasmania
has been her second home for the past 16 years.
Basketball
was a big part of her life during the boom years of the sport
in the late 80's, early 90's. Debbie promoted State Basketball
League teams and also assisted the Perth Wildcats. Marketing
and promotion came naturally, however the world of filmmaking
and storytelling has become her driving force.
Debbie is the webmaster of this website and she welcomes all
stories and feedback or even just a chat about the devils
and quolls. You can email Debbie at debbie_thoy@devilsonverandah.com.au
