Hannah has a BA in Drama from Hull University, an MA in scriptwriting from Salford University, is a BBC writersroom Future Talent Award winner and was a participant on Paul Abbott's Shameless shadow writing scheme.
HIT & RUN is Hannah's first short film.
It is inspired by her uncle, an alcoholic, who moved in with her family in his darkest hours. She wrote the script years later in an attempt to show him how proud she was of him for kicking the addiction, and as an apology for behaving like an unforgiving teenage gobshite when he lived with them.
The feature length script for HIT & RUN was shortlisted for the industry renowned Channel 4 Coming Up scheme and their Screenwriting Course. Despite the incredibly positive reception, Hannah realised as a first time Writer Director she should create a 'taster' for the feature and set about making the short from the first twenty minutes.
HIT & RUN was made last summer for £7500; the cast and crew all waiving their fees to help bring this story to the screen. Hannah's next project is the feature.
Hannah hails from Stockport, Greater Manchester, and lives in Hackney, London, with her partner and one year old daughter.
