Rattling Stuff Welcomes Director Louis Norton Selzer

Rattling Stuff has announced the signing of exciting new director Louis Norton Selzer. Louis is a writer/director with a dark sense of humour and taste for the absurd, as displayed in his debut commercial for Sports Direct ‘Back To School’ produced through Rattling Stuff. 

His short films have played all over the world at multiple BAFTA and OSCAR qualifying film festivals. He's an awardee of the distinguished BFI Network funding scheme and was recently made a BAFTA Connect member in recognition of his contribution to the industry to date.

Louis takes pride in crafting heightened, cinematic worlds and characters with a keen focus on narrative storytelling. In addition to short form, he recently optioned his first feature and has several TV and film projects in development.

Louis said, "I've been looking for a place to call home for a while now. I knew Cabell from years gone by, and I was intrigued and excited by the offering at Rattling Stuff. After reuniting for the Sports Direct ‘Back To School’ spot with Mox London, we realised we were a great fit so decided to make it official – I’m delighted to be joining the Rattlers, and I’m excited to see what we do next."

Head of Rattling Stuff, Cabell Hopkins said, "Louis has been making very high-end narrative short films for a while now, and flexing his directorial muscles so to speak, waiting for the opportunity to make that first standout short form piece. It was through a mixture of luck and hard graft that we managed to win the Sports Direct ad, and I’m pretty sure he won’t look back now, as he has all the qualities to make it as a very accomplished commercial director."
