bio

Since beginning his career in 1997 by directing a project for MTV, Andrew Walton has avidly pursued a humanistic style of storytelling using evocative portraiture and striking realism that captures his subjects with engaging honesty. By becoming deeply invested in the personal details of his subjects's lives he is able to find profound meaning in otherwise ordinary events. He has directed commercials, short films and internet content for some of the world's top ad agencies and brands. In his first documentary feature, "Arctic Son", an estranged father and son reunite in a remote First Nation's community in the Arctic. The film premiered on the PBS network's award-winning P.O.V. series in August 2007.  He most recently wrote and directed  an episode of the Discovery Channel's "Next World" series entitled, "Future Ships".   Andrew is represented for commercial work in the U.S. by Town Entertainment and in Canada by Circle Productions.
