About the Director
Barnaby is a student filmmaker graduating from Access Creative College, Norwich in 2026.
His love of film was first ignited by creating short stories as a child and performing them with his cousins. This developed into a YouTube channel, where he learned how to edit and produce his own videos.
Later, he started making social media content, sketches and music videos, where he developed a love for music. For the last two years, he has been developing his skills in music and filmmaking.
Barnaby plays the piano and has taught himself to create music digitally. This is the first time he has scored music for one of his projects, and he is excited to present his first short film to a wider audience.
