‏Julian Shaw‏

With over 40 screen credits to his name, mostly leading roles, he's come a long way from treading the boards in the early 2000s at places like Putney Arts Theatre and Hampton Hill Playhouse. His method style of acting and powerful character presence are tools sharpened from years of experience in show business. Originally set to play the protagonist, his 180 degree switch into antagonist has secured him powerful recent roles in films such as My Best Enemy, The Watcher Self and The Northern Paradigm.

Julian's forte is writing and directing. Recent works including Birth Of Life, a multi award winning adventure drama. A Most Dangerous Child, a psychological thriller. And Bergamot Kills, a horror is in the works.

He now owns Still Dreaming Films Ltd, a production company with the aim to make cinematic film. In the works is a diverse slate of film genres and an international television series. The vision for the company is to gain partnership with other professionals, particularly at grassroots level to help support rising creatives through investment and mentoring. The ultimate aim is distribution for mainstream cinema, alongside national and international television.
