contact: anthony@blankcanvas.tv

Maltese/Icelandic national, Anthony was born in Malta where he became involved in theatre from a young age and acted in his first short film when he was 14 years old. Anthony went on to study Liberal Arts at King’s College London where he earned a first-class merit on his thesis on the history of ideas. From there he returned to Malta and with his friend and cinematographer Andrew Randon he went on to accumulate experience working in various technical departments from a camera, to sound on both commercials and films aiming to become a scriptwriter and director. In 2019 Anthony was commissioned to develop a script for the Maltese national Air Malta, a project Angelique Muller was producing and Andrew was shooting. This sparked the foundation of Blank Canvas in 2022. As a nimble team Andrew, Angelique, and Anthony have gone on to produce commercials, documentaries, and short films. Over the years Anthony has also developed his repertoire as a storyteller and visual artist having gone on to develop projects for fashion designers, musicals, and NGOs.
