CURTIS
Curtis grew up shooting films on his Grandpa’s Handycam. These days, he still pinches himself that he gets to make them for a living.
Known for his ability to get to the heart of a story, Curtis pairs a strong sense of cinematic craft with human truth.
He believes in the power of filmmaking to inspire change for good, to spread laughs because we need it, and to remind us what it is to be human.
With over a decade of experience in directing commercials, Curtis's work has been awarded locally and internationally, earning a Gold at the Clio Awards and a finalist spot at Cannes Lions.
In the narrative world, his recent work includes Cowboys Doing Laundry, which premiered at SXSW Sydney, and Bloom, a documentary set to broadcast on SBS.
He is currently developing a feature film.
