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 and truth of every story, Curtis 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.
Curtis' work has been awarded locally and internationally. His global film for the Movember Foundation was a finalist at the Cannes Lions and won gold at the Clio Awards, but more importantly showed men around the world that it's okay to be vulnerable and ask for help.
In the narrative world, 2024 saw the release of the short 'Cowboys Doing Laundry', premiering at SXSW Sydney.
