Biography

Muir dedicated his final year to Film Production at Christchurch Studios, specialising in the Lighting department. After working closely with professional cinematographers on BOVTV productions Muir greatly developed his skills and recently put them into practice on a work placement on the Disney Plus Production of A Thousand Blows. Creating his own short film at Christchurch taught Muir how to bring an idea to life on-screen, and how to navigate the practical challenges that filmmaking brings.

He is currently working towards getting his electrical qualifications to enter the Film and TV industry as a Spark.

It was always stressed that the contacts you make during your training are incredibly important, and your classmates are likely to end up being on set alongside you in the future. After working with a director of photography on one of the School’s short films, I was invited to work on a project with him outside of Bristol - proving that the professionals we meet via the School, may one day give us a call to action!
