Recent Graduate
Toby Penrose first made films at the age of nine, using his father's 8mm camera to make pixillated and animation films. After a period of teaching Philosophy and studying Art, he wrote a number of short scripts and made several experimental films and videos.
Toby joined the NFTS Animation Direction course in September 1995 and has made four films at the School. The Piano Man is his graduation film.
He is particularly interested in exploring new styles of film making - current emphasis on space and atmosphere - and is now developing some more short pieces and a live action feature.
