dustin rees
i was born in switzerland in 1981. spending my childhood in the UK, i returned to zurich at the age of 11.
after studying at the mathematisch naturwissenschaftliches gymnasium in zurich, i attended the foundation course at the university for art and design in zurich. following my love for animation, i graduated with distinction in this field from the university in lucerne four years later in 2007.
since then, i have directed and produced numerous commissioned trailers, clips and short films as well as my own projects. my films have traveled the globe through numerous film festivals and have been screened in cinemas and broadcasting stations.
in the following years, i have been part of camera-, editing- and editorial staff at two swiss TV stations.
to this date, i teach at the university in lucerne, i freelance, run animation workshops for schools and children, and am a film projectionist at the orient cinema in baden.
in my free time, i am an actor and technical assistant for the zurich comedy club, a tango dancer and a passionate gamer!
