BIOGRAPHY

Stewart is a highly visual and experienced director working in feature documentaries, commercials and feature films. He often specialises in sport and is adept in encouraging non-actors to be comfortable in front of camera. Sporting talent he has worked with includes Kenny Dalglish, Alan Shearer, Roger Federer, Tiger Woods, Geraint Thomas, Sam Warburton, Jess Ennis-Hill, Carlos Tevez, Shoaib Akhtar and many others. 

Stewart’s productions have won multiple international awards, including a BAFTA and the Grand Prix in Cannes.

Documentary is a speciality, with cinema released docs Kenny and Blue Moon Rising garnering Best Film awards and strong reviews. Kenny, the moving story of Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish, was the most successful sports film over five years and won Best Film Audience awards at three film festivals. It was later shown on the prestigious Storyville documentary strand on the BBC. Blue Moon Rising was released theatrically and was later shown on ITV. He has also directed numerous documentaries for the BBC and has been a judge for the BAFTA awards.

Another important strand for Stewart has been his ongoing work with Paralympians. He directed Channel 4 promos, idents and commercials for London 2012 (backed by BT), Sochi 2014, Rio 2016 (backed by Allianz) and  Japan 2020 Olympics/Paralympics (backed by BP).

Stewart is also a drama director. He has written and directed two feature films, beginning with the low budget Fast Food starring Douglas Henshall and Gerard Butler, then moving onto  the $5m Sky Pictures movie Kiss Kiss (Bang Bang), starring Stellan Skarsgard, Chris Penn and Paul Bettany. He wrote and directed The Cruise with Jane Horrocks and Jason Watkins for Sky Arts. His direction of Slaughterbots, a ‘fake’ documentary about the risk of attack drones, helped bring the danger of autonomous drones to the public’s attention, with long-running debate both in the mainstream media and online, leading to over 100 million views online.
