Filmmaker Statement

Originally from Australia, now based in London - Harry Deadman's filmmaking background is firmly in music videos. With a keen eye for art direction & purposeful framing, Harry loves to create bold films that highlight the slightly absurd. He loves to play with comedy and drama - always looking to blend the line between “oh is this funny… or sad…”. Set in sun-drenched British suburbia, Step Aboard is a film about feeling like the odd one out. It’s often easy to feel like everyone else has life worked out. The way they behave... speak... act... It’s sometimes all too tempting to try & be like everyone else - chasing after the idea of 'fitting in' and blending in with what you see around you.” Harry Deadman
