Short bio

Glen fell in love with film when he saw Star Wars at a young age. When he did time in the Royal Australian Airforce as a firefighter, film still called so he left a full-time job with regular pay to become a full-time filmmaker instead. He trained at Holmesglen TAFE, and graduated with an advanced diploma of Screen and Media. He worked on major feature films The Legend of Ben Hall, Choir Girl, Insomnia City and RAGE to name a few. He has been nominated for Best Script in 2015 48hour Film Comp and his short film Malevolent Pursuit is screening on primetime TV in the US.
