equired. Through common sense and the wish to help others we hope to encourage people to reach inside to pull out ‘the best in themselves.’ There is a hero in everyone. -Alison Thompson and Oscar Gubernati.
THE THIRD WAVE Cast and Crew Bios Bruce French - Volunteer A resident of Colorado’s western slope outside Telluride, Bruce works professionally as a personal chef to popular rock bands on world tour. When not on the road, the avid outdoorsman enjoys climbing, mountaineering and Kayaking near his yurt home in the San Juan Mountains. While sailing around the world in the mid 90’s, he made a stopover in Sri Lanka. Exploring the island on an old motorcycle, he was moved by the island’s rich culture and raw natural beauty, but mostly by the kindness and hospitality of the locals. It was that kind hospitality that fueled his return to volunteer after the tsunami tragedy. Donald “Donny” Paterson - Volunteer A native of Bowral, NSW Australia, Donald Thomas Paterson joined the Australian Army Reserve at age 17 and then six months later, the Australian Army. He became involved in Junior Rugby League while in midst of his military career at a posting in Brisbane and has been there ever since. He found his niche in Sports Medicine and currently works as an in-demand trainer for Newcastle area football teams and teaches popular first aid courses for the community at large. He is married to Tracey and has a son (Cory) who plays first grade rugby league for the Newcastle Knights and two daughters (Karah and Krystal). Sunil Elvitigala - Cinematographer/Co-producer Sri Lankan-born and Montreal-based Sunil Elvitigala left his native land and backpacked through the entire subcontinent, the near east and Europe and eventually to Canada where he is a citizen. While working several odd jobs, he studied at Dawson School of Photography and, seeking to make a film about backpacking stories, enrolled at Inderdeck College of film. When the Tsunami hit his motherland, he felt compelled to return to document the tragedy. Starting in the capitol of Colombo, he ventured down the west coast and ended up in Hikkaduwa, one of the worst hit areas. While filming, he met Alison Thompson who was already making a film. She asked for his help. THE THIRD WAVE is the result.
