"I'm a filmmaker with 25 years experience making documentary, factual entertainment and commercial video. I have a passion for folklore and have made two successful 6 x 26' TV series featuring the customs & traditions of UK and France, both distributed internationally. I am currently working on a new series 'Gatherings' rooted in folklore but revealing much about contemporary Britain."
Since 2006 Dave Brewis has filmed almost 100 offbeat events, customs and traditions and has built an extensive video archive of folklore subject matter - mainly from the UK and France. Dave's work is artistically shot, features extraordinary interviews and contains all the building blocks necessary for storytelling across short-form and long-form documentary/factual.
Dave runs the production company TEN80 - a highly equipped team of experienced pros with a passion for creating compelling video, TV and marketing content. TEN80 also serves as the production company for Dave's folkloric documentary and TV content and is accredited appropriately. Visit the TEN80 website for more...
"Gatherings is essentially a series of local stories about folk coming together for a specific purpose, but when viewed collectively will reveal something of ourselves - in particular our tribal instincts and need for belonging.”
