Biography

Alun's career began in 2005 with a fifteen minute psychological film noir entitled The Girl, the Gun and the Desert. After the film was optioned for a European graphic novel adaptation it was nominated and later won the Swansea Bay Film Festival in 2006. Working under the banner of 'All Star Friends Productions', Alun moved directly into the music promo video industry winning the 'Notion Magazine Best New Film Maker Award' in 2007. At the end of the year Alun also won his category in the Newport International Film Festival. Alun's left field sensibilities and hunger for storytelling attracted him to Sir Richard Attenborough's panel of judges in May 2008 where he won Best Short Film (Over 10 mins).

Alun D Pughe is currently working in co-production with Andrew Jones of Masterplan Films on a feature film entitled The White Room.
