My writer's hat

Portrait of David Kadoche O'Sullivan, writer

A passionate and demanding writer, I have built solid experience in storytelling. Whether in writing fiction, committed documentaries (« Ocean Danger »), a novel (« Pizzo ») or commercials (« BCS », « Cascade »). Like a chameleon of writing, I love infusing my writing with a strong emotional dimension for my readers and viewers. I have also sharpened my pen writing song lyrics and in the world of television, notably within the writers' team of the show « AMANDA » on France 2.

I love the power of words, their ability to move us, their musicality, their poetry. It is with this ambition that I love to reveal all their magic.

My director's hat

It was writing my first short film, « Regarde », that led me to directing. The desire to bring to life the words and the story I had pictured in my mind awakened in me the idea of deciding how it should be interpreted. Directing then became an obvious calling, revealing my eye for detail and my visual sensibility.

I see the director's work as that of a jeweler cutting and polishing the rough diamond that is the screenplay, to give it all its beauty and brilliance.
