Bio
Tim Marshall is an award-winning Australian writer/director with an asymmetrical curiosity and a passion for exploring our misbalanced lives, from the joy to the pain.
In 2013, his short film ‘Gorilla’ won the Iris Prize in the UK, awarding him 25K to make his next short film.
The outcome of this, ‘Followers’, is a proof-of-concept short film for his feature currently in development. The short film ‘Followers’ had its world premiere in competition at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival and screened in competition at SXSW 2015.
The feature screenplay for ‘Followers’ earned Tim a place in the 2014 Outfest Screenwriting Lab, made it to the semi-finals round of the 2014 Academy Nicholl Fellowship, and was recently a part of the Film Independent Fast Track program in 2017.
Tim also has an exciting slate of feature films and TV shows currently in development. Most notably, his feature film script, ‘The Love Division’, which was 1 of 4 finalists in the Screen Queensland and Stan (Australia’s largest SVOD platform) Fully Funded Features Initiative and his comedy TV series ‘Forever Alone’, co-written by Luke Tierney. The pilot script for ‘Forever Alone’ recently won Grand Prize in the WeScreenplay TV Script Contest, judged by Comedy Central.
