Glen Milner is a British filmmaker based in London. After working through the camera ranks on films such as Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life, Glen focused his own distinct style into documentary storytelling.
His films for broadcasters such as The BBC, Channel 4, LucasFilm, Disney, The Guardian & SKY Television have gone onto reach huge global audiences and receive wide-spread critical acclaim. This includes awards from worldwide festivals and nominations at institutions such as the American Film Institute &The Royal Television Society. Documentaries like the BBC’s ‘Redefining Juliet’ and Channel 4’s ‘Elders’ have shone a light on difficult and challenging subjects while retaining an individual style that endeavours to reach out to new audiences.
His personal and considered approach to subjects has also led to numerous commissions from creative advertising agencies and global brands from around the world including Toyota, Audi, Star Wars, D&G, British Airways & Chanel.
An evocative portrait of Hull's industrial heritage and the people who helped create it. Produced in collaboration with artist Linda Brothwell as part of Hull City of Culture 2017, Glen Milner's visually stunning film pushes the arts documentary form, offering an elegant tribute to a disappearing world of craft traditions, from boat-builders and wood-carvers to the compass-maker whose precision-crafted instruments once helped steer Hull's fishing fleet.
