A decade ago, cinema complexes across Australia were going digital, dumping their old analog equipment and almost overnight, projectionists found themselves out of a job.

Gone were the old large film reels as movie releases moved to what were known as Digital Cinema Packages. One of those projectionists was Ken Parfrey, pictured, of the Radio Springs Hotel in Lyonville. He began his career at the Carlton Movie House and subsequently worked at numerous theatres around Melbourne and the Melbourne Film Festival before taking over the hotel in 1997. Later Ken heard that Cinema Nova, where he worked for many years, was getting rid of their projectors. “The owners told me to come and get them or they were going to the tip.

Work has begun to create a significant new attraction that’s projected to bring tens of thousands more visitors to Daylesford each year.

The man behind development of the new museum specialising in Australian history and Australiana is Mark Ward, already known to many through his multiple Amazing Mill Markets ventures including at Daylesford.
