Simon Raby

Simon Raby made his first feature at the age of only 16. Later he became a freelance camera/sound man, and collaborated with director Niki Caro, who he would shoot five films for. He has also worked extensively with director Scott Reynolds; including on stylish thriller The Ugly. Raby has recently returned to his directorial beginnings - working in both drama (Interrogation) and documentary (arts show The Gravy).

Scott and I share a love of 1970s Hollywood and we went out of our way to find a colour stock that had been used in the 1970s ... I think we were the last film ever to shoot with it.
