We’re proud to share that cowboys., Clockwork Films’ director duo, were named Director of the Year at the 2025 PADC Awards. It’s a meaningful moment for both of them and for our WA team.
cowboys. bring a calm, honest and collaborative approach to every job. They listen, they work closely with crew and agencies, and they create sets where people feel comfortable doing their best work. This award feels like a simple, well-earned acknowledgment of that.
