David Fisher
About: 
I am a creative and enthusiastic individual and am extremely interested in following a career writing and directing for film and television. I belong to a comedy team named Punchdrunk making short films, all of which have been shown at various film festivals and competitions. I have participated in the writing of several of our films including the Portobello Film Festival "Best Comedy" winner, "The Wall".
Two of our films have also been broadcast and several are currently being considered for broadcast. My contributions have been variously as writer, cameraman, director, producer and actor, though it is writing that I most enjoy.
