The first time Bo had a relevant answer for the 'hobbies and interests' section of an application form was when she applied to film school and after three successful years and one BA(Hons) in Contemporary Media Practice later, she finally sealed her fate as a film maker. It was no longer just a hobby and an interest - It was a passion and a vocation.  

 

For ten years Bo taught that vocation as part of her role as teacher in primary schools from Devon to Peru, making sure to give as many children as possible the opportunity to work together to make their own movies. With SATs stifling creativity in the classroom and brother Dan getting his film degree, Bo finally decided the time had come to commit to film making full-time and loves the fact that film making gives her endless opportunities to continue to learn new things and meet new people.

 

When she is not making movies, Bo spends her time learning new skills, creating graphics and logos in Photoshop and Illustrator and - mostly - reading and writing books for youngsters.
