about dylan shearsby

I have been storyboarding for film, advertising and TV since 2009. Some films I've boarded include War Machine, Insidious 6, Saccharine, I, Frankenstein and TV shows The Dispatcher, Fires, The Messenger and Bad Behaviour.

I wrote and directed the short film Morning Habits in 2025.

​

I've written and illustrated three children's books, "Upside Down Side", "Upside Down Sid Goes to Work", and "Waiters in Elevators."

​

I was born in South Africa. As a child I sold colour pencil drawings of ninja turtles to the other kids at school. In high school I drew single panel cartoons and caricatures for sports and martial arts magazines.

​

I'm passionate about both storytelling and drawing, which combined with my love and analysis of cinema, has given me the tools to bring artistry and problem solving to the productions I work on.
