Background
David wrote and directed his first short film in 2016 and was accepted into the Writers Lab at the Cambridge Film Festival in 2018. This led to the BFI Network Early Development Fund in 2019, which helped him to develop a feature treatment. David received his first feature screenplay commission shortly thereafter, and has made a career out of it ever since. If interested, David wrote a detailed version of his journey and career trajectory for the BFI Network called Short to Feature.
