Elliot Blakemore Cheltenham, United Kingdom
Young Gloucestershire-based filmmaker and film programmer. BFI Film Academy and NFTS BFI Craft Residential Alumni. Multi-time festival and competition finalist. Specialising in screenwriting, directing and editing.
Hi, my name is Elliot! I am a RandomActs, regional BFI and NFTS BFI Film Academy Alumni and am also part of a U.K Young Programmers Network. I am currently studying at the University of Gloucestershire, but have recently completed a Creative and Digital Media apprenticeship at a local media company, where I worked on commissions, festivals and screening events. I also maintain steady work; two films I have worked on have been nominated at the Into Film Awards, and a separate film reaching the finals in the national SF48 film competition. I specialise in Screenwriting, Directing and Editing, but also have a background in Photography, Sound Recording, 2D Animation/VFX and Colour Grading, as well as experience in other on-set roles such as Cinematographer, First A.D, Clapperloader and Runner.
I love being involved in film, no matter the form, as well as embracing the opportunities to meet new people :)
Based across Gloucestershire and Shropshire.
