Danielle Sellwood
I am a director/filmmaker specialising in women's sports stories. My recent projects include Elise Christie - No Filter (Sky Sports/Sky Docs), Untethered (Sky Sports), and Younger - Looking Forward to Getting Older (Amazon Prime).
I have a 30-year career in the sports industry spanning sportswear design, trend forecasting, journalism, and activism for the promotion of women’s sport, plus I am a former GB international canoeist. So, I bring decades of experience and knowledge to my films and have a deep connection and understanding of sports and sports culture.
I also specialise in film accessibility; all my work has descriptive captions and audio description - I view access as a creative opportunity and look at ways to weave these elements seamlessly into my films. For example, Untethered included audio description in the form of a narrator for all audiences to enjoy
My work has been screened in UK cinemas, film festivals globally, and streamed on Sky and Amazon Prime.
