Lisa Wang is a highly respected producer with over 32 years of experience in television and film. She has worked with Australia’s leading independent production companies and collaborated with major international broadcasters across the UK, USA, Germany, and Italy. As director of Black Sheep Films—founded in 1982 by her late husband, Andrew McVitty—she has produced, written, and directed a range of award-winning documentaries.

She began her career as a production accountant on the iconic ABC comedy Frontline, before moving into freelance roles in special effects and the art department. She later established herself as a skilled production manager, line producer, and producer across both scripted and unscripted television and feature films. Her favourite credits include the cheeky ABC comedy White Fever (2024), the critically acclaimed horror feature Late Night with The Devil (2023), and Josh Thomas’s Please Like Me (ABC/Pivot/Hulu/Netflix, 2014–2016).

Deeply committed to storytelling that amplifies underrepresented voices, she wrote, directed, and produced Reunion (SBS), a powerful exploration of cultural identity that screened at IDFA Amsterdam in 1998, followed by P.S. I Love You (ABC), which followed teenage girls navigating life in a remote school campus. She also produced Trevor Graham’s feature documentaries Monsieur Mayonnaise (MIFF 2016, Berlinale 2017) and Chef Antonio’s Recipes for Revolution (MIFF 2021). Her current project with Graham, Digby & Camille—a heartwarming eight-year love story between Sydney artist Digby Webster and his girlfriend, trainee chef Camille Collins, both living with Down syndrome—is co-directed by Webster and Graham, currently in post-production, and will premiere at MIFF 2026.

Lisa is the Director of Screen at the Chinese Museum and the founder of Screen Presence, a not-for-profit initiative dedicated to amplifying Asian Australian voices in the screen industry. Through monthly Next Gen networking and mentorship meetings, along with industry connections and placements, she continues to champion greater inclusion and authentic storytelling on screen.
