Douglas started out as an actor in the mid 90’s, before finding his true love, directing. Over the past 20 years he has worked on over 15 projects, from Music videos to Feature films, and even directed a cookery show starring Julie Goodyear and Ken Morley.
Douglas has had his worked shown at various festivals including Edinburgh and Portobello in London. And was the creator of the Crime series Blackout.
Over the years he has worked with Craig Charles, Lee Boardman, Michael Angelis, Lesley Manning, Jon Voight and David Yates.
Till the last started out as a simple piece, a two minute film for the festival circuit, a way to gain exposure, nothing more.
However from the moment the cameras started to turn we could all tell this would be something more, and indeed it turned out to be just so, I would go as far to say this is my best work.
Both cast and crew put their all into the project, you would think any actor would give their souls for a piece that had no lines, but acting with ones face and body alone is a far harder task then simply speaking a few lines.
To this end the film pushed the actors, both young and old to try something new, something fresh, and the team was more then up to the task. which makes the job of the director so much easier.
