Steph Du Melo (Writing)

Steph Du Melo (Stephen Dumelow) is a British filmmaker whose work spans directing, writing and producing within the independent and genre film space. He was the founder of MeloMedia Films Ltd, a UK-based production company committed to “producing high quality, thought-provoking feature films”. Du Melo began his professional life in the world of music and sound as a composer and pop star. His first film role was working as an orchestral recordist on the 1998 film Monk Dawson, on which his friend and collaborator Mark Jensen was composer. This early technical experience placed him close to the engine room of film production, developing both the discipline and craft awareness that would later feed into his directing and producing work. In 1998 Du Melo co-founded the production company Renaissance 2000 Films. In 1999, they produced the Electronic Press Kit for the film The Criminal (directed by Julian Simpson).
