Josephine Croft - Director/Producer/Creator
This is Josephine's first passion project, having been a cheerleader for ten years, she thought this story was too good not to tell. Many people don't know about the booming Cheerleading industry and many people still hold on to the stigma. Josephine wanted to show her passion to the wider community and exactly just what it meant to be a cheerleader at the top of their game.

Ben Shackleford - Series Producer
From an early age, Ben was most passionate about two things; comic books and chocolate flavoured breakfast cereal. Quickly realising that he was unable to make a career from reading Batman and eating Coco Pops, Ben turned his hand to the television industry. Working across a broad range of programming including lifestyle constructed reality, documentary and branded content, Ben feels most enthused when in the studio or in the field telling stories. As the landscape of the Australian Media scene changes dramatically, he is very interested in developing innovative ways to connect and communicate with new audiences. Ben is also still very serious about Batman and cereal.
