Adam White (born 9 January 1976) is an Australian sportsman and filmmaker.

Australian rules football career

[edit]

White played for Carlton in the Australian Football League from 1997 to 2001.

White is best remembered for his accidental collision with an umpire during a match, a collision that resulted in White knocking himself out.[1]

After retiring from professional football due to injury (unrelated to the umpire incident), White launched a new career as an independent filmmaker.

His first independently produced short film was A Black and White World, which played at a number of festivals.[1][2]

White followed with Toucan 2008,[3] for which he received funding support from Film Australia.
