Paul W. Franklin lista de filmes
Paul is a Kentish Man (not a Man of Kent, there's a difference), who now lives in Salisbury.
He was educated at Dover College Prep School, Folkestone, before moving to Milner Court and then The King's School Canterbury.
Academically he was always strong, but couldn't really be bothered with A-Levels. He snuck into The University of Nottingham to study manufacturing engineering, but quit just after a year. He switched to Business Studies at Nottingham Trent, but soon packed that in and gave up on academia completely to pursue a career writing films. His parents were delighted.
He fell into gardening on-and-off for a few years, before flying to Australia, where he spent most of the time in Sydney and worked in a Sex Shop. Whilst attempting to write film scripts, he also had some Erotica published, which is regarded as "Way better than anything EL James wrote".
After returning from Down Under, he eventually moved to London where he soon found a 'proper job' in Press Cuttings, but got fired after a year. This pattern continued in his next job, a photographer for an estate agent, which he also left just after a year.
He slowly pressed on with scriptwriting, whilst dabbling in the world of Film Extras. He consequently wrote a popular blog on the topic for cult website www.bleedingcool.com
In 2012 he finally pulled his finger out, and in 2013 won an award and much acclaim for an online advert for PlayStation. He followed this up with his directorial debut for Shell, which had millions of views worldwide, and went on to make numerous commercials for brands such as Chevrolet, Castrol and Shell. He also made a handful of music videos.
His 2021 short horror film 'Viola' has been selected for numerous festivals, winning several accolades including Best Film, Best Director and Best Cinematography.
Outside of movies he enjoys rugby, travel and correcting people's grammar. He played a 'Deatheater' in the final Harry Potter film, and as a choirboy he once sang to the Pope.
