About the director
Daniel Robert Hope (Dan) is a British animator, filmmaker and writer.
With a love of films and games, Dan started out as an animator and VFX artist, later gaining recognition for directing commercials in animation. Dan went on to study at the National Film and Television School (NFTS) where he directed shorts All at Sea and Barry the Bottomfeeder, before writing and directing The Clearing.
Sad and silly, Dan's work explores character through surreal comedy in stop motion animation.
