Dominic Higgins
Dominic attended Bournville Art College in Birmingham, where he originally intended to dedicate his time to studying Special Effects for film and TV. However, after taking a course in photography, and re-discovering his childhood love of script writing, he began to make short films.
A chance encounter with a BBC set designer led to gaining working experience on a TV set, which provided valuable experience for the budding filmmaker.
In 2003 with the help of the Princes Trust, he set up Pixel Revolution Films, with his brother Ian. The company’s first film, an experimental animated/live action short, THE WOLF WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD, garnered “best animation” award at The International Digital Video Festival in LA and at Birmingham’s TIC Film Festival. This success led to their first commissioned feature film project, THE 13th DAY.
In 2011 he started work on what was to become their most ambitious project, ALL THAT REMAINS the true and inspiring story of Nagasaki bomb survivor and Christian convert, Dr. Takashi Nagai. The project would take 5 years to complete.
More recent films include the multi-award winning 7 DAYS and OF WOLVES AND MEN
Dominic is currently working on A SHAMROCK AT MY SIDE which tells the story of Irish WW2 fighter ace, Brendan “Spitfire Paddy” Finucane.
