Short Bio and Review:
David Slade was born September 26, 1969. He’s a British film director who began his career making music videos. His work includes videos for artists such as Aphex Twin, Rob Dougan, System of a Down, Stone Temple Pilots, Tori Amos, and Muse.

His first feature film, Hard Candy, was released in 2005 by Lions Gate Entertainment, who purchased the independent movie at the Sundance Film Festival. He went on to direct the vampire movie 30 Days of Night in 2007. David Slade was chosen by Summit Entertainment to direct Eclipse, the third film in the Twilight film series.


What I like about David’s work is the way he handles the photography of all of his work. The color lenses he uses and how he can capture a good angle. Have you seen any of his movies? What do you think of his music videos? After seeing what he can do with a vampire movie, how he manages to do fight scenes between vampires represents a couple in love, how do you think Eclipse will turn out to be?


Are you a fan of David Slade's work? What about his directing style that you like most, and is there anything you disagree with? What was your reacation when you found out he was going to direct 'Eclipse' - and what are your thoughts now that the movie is almost out?
