Writer/Director David Robinson-Smith (Australian, 1988) grew up on the NSW Central Coast of Australia. David is focused on stories that find the nuance in seemingly black and white issues. With no precedent for filmmaking in his community and seeking an outlet for his creativity David found music. David made his first short film with the purpose of composing a score. The result was a burgeoning love of filmmaking, a craft which David honed on many short films and music videos. In 2022, he completed a Masters in Directing at the Australian Film Television and Radio School. His graduate project Mud Crab is beginning its festival run in 2022.
