Wesley Van Tonder

I'm a runner and driver based in Chobham, Surrey, 10 minutes from Longcross and close to Shepperton and Pinewood. I have my own 4x4, a Class 1 licence and five years of commercial driving, including production work at major London studios and an HGV run from Elstree to Morocco. Early calls and long days don't bother me, and I speak fluent French. Longer term I want to write and direct. I write scripts in Final Draft, edit in DaVinci Resolve and build previs in Unreal Engine through my own company, Obsidian GT. Action-adventure and fantasy are what I love most, and I believe emotion should guide every cut. Being on set as a runner is the best way I know to learn how films really get made.
