Biography
David has more than 50 TV and cinema documentary and drama credits to his name - including 'Game Over: Kasparov and the Machine', 'Born Equal', 'Love + Hate' and Franny's film 'McLibel'.
Stuff done
With an all-star cast, Born Equal is a major new drama from Bafta-winning writer and director Dominic Savage. The action is centred around a B&B temporarily housing the homeless and dispossessed.
Love + Hate is a modern love story set across the racial divide in a Northern town.
Set amidst New York's towering Corporate HQ's in a ultra high tech world of collapsed Enrons, GAME OVER is a film that defines an era.
An angry, nihilistic drama told with gut-renching conviction, Out Of Control confirms writer-director Dominic Savage as the standard bearer for the raw, social realist traditions established and refined by Ken Loach and the late Alan Clarke.
Winner of Best Single Drama BAFTA 2002.
Arts Documentary Emmy Nomination.
