MORE ABOUT SIMON CADE

Growing up, I often switched between drawing cartoons, playing instruments, or building things with cardboard and lots of tape. But after I picked up a video camera and made my first short film, I was confident that music and drawing would be secondary. Nowadays, I spend my time living in Brighton, working on a variety of video and film projects. Working for myself I've been able to combine all of my work-related interests - film, music, analytical writing, business and the occasional drawing. When I'm not working, I try to spend as much time hiking in new places, rewatching British comedy series, playing badminton and having barbecues in the park.
