ABOUT ME

Jonathan Entwistle

jonathan entwistle london film maker director northern short film

I was born in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, UK in 1984. I left the north of England for London at the age of 19, after living in Leeds whilst completing a fine art course. I studied Fine Art at the Chelsea School of Art & Design. It was here that I gained experience in the formal visual arts, most specifically the moving image.

After taking a great interest in the works of Werner Herzog & Lars Von Trier I applied for film school directly after completing my BA(Hons). I went to the London Film School to complete my MA where I was awarded a Skillset grant based upon my application to complete my studies there. I graduated in April 2009. He currently resides in Hackney, North East London.

I am currently working on a few promos and a new set of small-scale shorts called The Good North. I am also developing two larger scale shorts for shooting this coming Autumn and Winter.
