Biography: The artist was born in France in 1971. He studied video production in Lyon’s Ecole Superieure de Communication Audiovisuelle where he produced and directed his first work : a documentary showing the activities of “Enfants de la Terre” (a charity organization that helps sick kids) which was broadcast on France 2 (French National TV channel). Vincent Chabrillat then took the Intensive Film Program at New York University in the US. His main objective was to learn the hands-on craft of filmmaking. With fellow students he produced three short films and also worked on numerous productions outside of the school. He worked as DP, cameraman, script person, boom operator, gaffer, editor, assistant director, and even as an assistant casting director for James Ivory’s “A Soldier Daughter Never Cries”. The goal was to get a stronger knowledge of every job in order to be able to understand and even sometimes anticipate his crew’s problems while directing his ow! n films. Back in France he studied at Paris 8 University in order to get more theoretical knowledge about cinema. As an exchange student he decided to go back to New York City and took a multimedia and special effects oriented program at Brooklyn College. He then worked as a photo editor for Time Warner’s Court TV, a national TV station based in New York City. After three years he felt that it was finally time for him to go on and shoot his own films. Since 2003 he has shot four short films : two fictions, and two experimental films selected in many festivals around the world. He is now working on video installation projects as well as other experimental and fiction films. He is also preparing his first feature film.

Biography: In the mid eighties, Daniel learned film directing at Florence’s Istituto di Scienze Cinematografiche, with teachers like Tinto Brass and Mario Garriba, and guest lecturers such as Martin Scorsese and Vittorio Gassman among others. He then pursued a communications degree at the Catholic University of Uruguay, where he taught for a period of three years after his graduation. During this time, he also took part in the making of dozens of student films as instructor or supervisor. His Masters Degree Thesis, completed in 1990, was a 300 page long application of the General Systems Theory to film making. A career in television and advertising followed. However, the lack of an established professional film industry in Uruguay, finally brought him to Australia. He found work in the Pay-TV industry; first at an Italian-spoken channel and a couple of years later, he moved on to the movie channel where he still works as a promo director; a job that has been also rewarded with awards. In 1999 Daniel founded New Dark Ages Pty. Ltd., a Sydney-based production company initially aimed at making provoking and challenging films with a preference for fantasy, horror and humour. As a result, Daniel's short dark comedy Twitch became the company's first project. Twitch went on to win six awards and to be screened at over forty film festivals worldwide. Daniel's involvement as a producer in another award-winning short: Petrina Buckley’s Sixth Scent is also a result of New Dark Ages' support of young talent and its commitment to an Australian cultural identity. Both short films have been distributed internationally by Hypnotic and Britshorts, and have been sold to cable stations, airline companies and other outlets. Thanks to Twitch, Daniel was also selected to attend the Berlinale Talent Campus in 2004, where he attended workshops conducted by directors like Alan Parker, and script experts like Thomas Schlesinger and Lucy Scher from The Script Factory (UK's development program). The Talent Campus also provided Daniel with the invaluable opportunity of exchanging experiences with emerging talent from all over the world. As precious as that experience was for him, Daniel was able to continue gathering ideas from another golden source when, a few months later, he attended scriptwriting guru Robert McKee's seminar in Melbourne. For the last three years, Daniel has been given shape to his feature script The Rite, and now he looks forward to taking it into production. For this purpose, New Dark Ages Pty. Ltd. has joined forces with producer Tim Maddocks of Maddfilms and formed The Rite Partnership. The script has been able to attract the attention and commitment of veteran cinematographer Geoff Burton (Bangkok Hilton, Brilliant Lies) and multi award-winning composer Christopher Gordon (Master And Commander, Salem’s Lot) among other crew personnel. Tim and Daniel are now in the process of securing the rest of the crew, the cast and the funds necessary for shooting the film. In the meantime, they have produced The New Life, a short film triggered by Dante Alighieri’s La Vita Nuova, albeit not an adaptation.
