Hi, I’m William Thurlby, An aspiring DoP from Bedfordshire UK. And here’s a little about me!

From my early teen’s I have been passionate about the visual aspect of filmmaking, I was drawn to the world of cinematography from a group role during GCSE Film Studies. With my fascination coming from the power of the camera to capture and convey stories and emotions through Lighting and camera manipulation. After completing my A levels I went to University to study a BA In Film Production. During my time there, I focused on learning the technical aspects of camera work, lighting, and colour grading. Between studies I networked and tried to take on trainee jobs with experienced DP's, AC's, sparks, and colourists

Having completed my last budget short BRACIA. I have had the privilege of using these links to hire equipment from VMI, as well as to bring in professional AC’s and a Steadicam operator. As an early aspiring Director of Photography, I am aware of how much there is still to learn, and I am actively seeking out more professional opportunities to hone my skills and further my career. I am excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible with the camera, both on set and in my personal projects.

I am always eager to collaborate with other filmmakers and creatives, and I am open to any and all opportunities to work on new projects. Whether you are a seasoned professional or a fellow newcomer to the world of filmmaking, I believe that there is always something to learn and gain from working together. If you are interested in discussing a potential collaboration, or if you have any questions or comments about my work, please feel free to reach out to me. You can find links to my social media and portfolio below, and I look forward to hearing from you!
