Rich Maskey (he/him) is a filmmaker and visual artist blending creativity with new technology to produce artistic and emotive imagery and site-specific light sculptures. Skilled with the latest filmmaking equipment and not afriad to get
the soldering iron out, Rich enjoys working in extreme environments,
quickly adapting to different cultures, climates and electrical
regualtions! He has produced and edited many short documentaries, often with
sensitive subjects, and is confident directing scenes and working with
contributors to secure striking editorial content. With a strong interest in innovative ways to engage and communicate
with an audience, Rich prefers working on projects that have a
significant message to convey. In response to his own experiences, Rich developed an immersive,
interactive installation about mental health and psychosis in collaboration with Kings College London. Set in a gallery space, visitors experienced a live and personalised
voice hearing simulation derived from the first-hand accounts of those
with lived experience. Rich has a degree in biosciences and an on-going interest in two
major campaign areas; mental health and the way it is communicated in
the media, and the health of our oceans. |
