Luke Snellin
Luke Snellin (born 9 March 1986) is a British film and television director and screenwriter.
He was nominated for a BAFTA Film Award in 2010 and named as one of Screen International's "Stars of Tomorrow" in 2010 and one of Broadcast Magazine's "Hot Shots" in 2013.
Snellin attended Coopers Company and Coborn School in Upminster, Essex, before studying screenwriting at Bournemouth University.
His short film Mixtape starring Bill Milner was nominated for a BAFTA for Best Short Film and won the Virgin Media Shorts competition. The film features music from The Kinks and Heart.
Jason Solomons singled out the film in his Trailer Trash column for The Guardian in the build up to the BAFTA Awards in 2010. He stated that he was "Immediately charmed by its retro story of a boy who makes a cassette of songs for the girl next door".
In honour of Mixtape's BAFTA nomination, BBC 6 Music presenter Lauren Laverne invited Snellin on her show to share a mixtape from when he was 11 years old in the memory tapes segment.
He was then selected as one of seven directors, from nearly a thousand applicants, to direct an episode of original drama for Channel 4 through the broadcaster's "Coming Up" scheme in 2013.
This led to him directing episodes of BAFTA and Emmy-nominated My Mad Fat Diary, Russell T Davies' Banana and Pete Bowker's The A Word.
