Ryan J. Smith’s first ever film was a stop-start Lego animation which he created for a primary school project. After the short was completed, it was shown at the Blackpool Odeon. Ryan can remember being sat in the theatre that day, revelling in seeing his work - his own creation - on the big screen. The credits rolled and he saw his name. He wanted more.

“The thing I love most about filmmaking is the fact that it’s a confluence of music, photography, emotion - it’s where everything under the ‘creative problem-solving’ banner meets,” says Ryan. “Plus, you get to work with your friends and, while it can get stressful at times, there are certainly worse jobs.“Filmmaking is confronting one problem after another, all of which need solving pretty quickly but, at the same time, making a film is when I feel the most awake and alert,” he adds.
Creating that kind of working environment is exactly what Ryan set out to do when he founded Skint Film Company, his own production firm. Born of a desire to embrace creativity whilst also enabling him to have the kind of control external studios simply won’t permit, Skint is Ryan’s ultimate tool.
