Eddy Bell(I)

Eddy started working in film production in 2003, around the same time the coffee trolley was invented. After eight years on set working in every area of production, it was clear that Eddy would never function in any of the practical film departments, so the only option left for him was to direct. Eddy went off to the Victorian College of the Arts to study film and graduated (Valedictorian) in 2013. He was also awarded The Lionell Gell Foundation Scholarship, which funded his short film "Grey Bull" (2014). "Grey Bull" went on to win an Australian Director's Guild Award, the Rouben Mamoulian Award for Best Director (Short Film) at the Sydney Film Festival, Best Australian Short Film at the Melbourne International Film Festival, Best Australian Short film at Flickerfest and the Craft Award at St Kilda Film Festival. Finally he won a Young Director Award at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity (2015).
