FILMMAKER BIOS

Andrew Hinton started out as Assistant Producer on Marc Isaacs’ award-winning documentary LIFT and has worked as a producer for the past 9 years, collaborating with bands, brands and NGOs to bring their vision to the screen. The past couple of years, he has focused increasingly on his own projects as a Producer/Director in order to give voice to positive ideas and stories and encourages social change. He discovered the quiet revolutionary possibilities of the Tippy Tap during a recent three-month filming trip in India. Like all exciting projects, it seemed to take on a life of its own from the first encounter. The film, which was made in an afternoon, won a 2011 YouTube non-profit video award. Another documentary made during that trip, about a 14-year-old paperboy who works two jobs on top of attending school, won the Satyajit Ray Foundation International Short Film Award.
