Vale: Troy Gordon

Cameraman Troy Gordon, who worked on Australian Survivor, Married at First Sight and I’m A Celebrity (UK) has died.

He died following a battle with cancer on the Sunshine Coast in the very early hours of Monday morning.

Gordon began working in the industry over 30 years ago in 1985, and started his own company, TRG Vision, in 2005 in Brisbane. He covered news events such as the Gulf War in 1990 and the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and was a recipient of the Golden Tripod award from the Australian Cinematographers Society.

ACA‘s Leila McKinnon said: “Absolutely heartbreaking, we had so many adventures together, he should have had many more to come, so incredibly sad.”

Mark “Tarzan” Herlaar, from Australian Survivor in 2017 and 2020 wrote on Instagram, “R.I.P brother, loved your company and friendship, was great knowing you and working with you … I’ll still be looking for your happy smile and great sense of humour.

“Take your rest brother. And know you are truly missed.”
