About DJ DBA

Daniel Bucknell was born in Melbourne, Australia to (kindergarten teacher) Anne Jones, and (computer programmer) Gavin Bucknell. From an early age, Daniel found an interest in creative writing, first constructing songs and later short stories and moving eventually onto film as an adult. His mother and fathers interest in music and film alike both assisted in Daniels initial inspiration that pushed him to think creatively as a child and it only grew from there.

At age 11, Daniel learned to play guitar and bass with an existing first love for the drums and by 16 was recording his own songs on all instruments including vocals. By 20 years old, Daniel had already released his own full length album for his solo musical project 'Moments before Collision'. He had begun to write several short stories until he began work on his first science fiction novel. That novel became the first of a series that encompassed many short stories inside the main series plots. It became his goal to make something of the universe he had created.

Still unpublished, Daniel realized the strength of his novel also lacked emotion and depth as his music did and so brought them together into the world of film making where both storytelling in a visual and musical way could emerge in a much larger way.

At age 22, Daniel and his partner Meaghan (19) had their first child, Blake Peter Halley Bucknell and Daniel became a family man as well as aspiring creative. Not long after, Meaghan had fallen pregnant with their second child. This inspired a new reason to succeed and unlimited inspiration for his work. At age 23, he had released 4 albums of original material and multiple singles as well but he found that storytelling through song was not the best way to get his ideas across. Although he found himself drawn to film, Daniel knew little about the industry or how to go about making a movie so he began to work with others at similar levels to make short films and learn the process. After 2 years of writing and learning in 2017, Daniel directed his short film "Fabian Sing" that he had spent months preparing before and has now begun to take on other independent film projects with the hopes that one day his dream series will be a reality.

The original novel he wrote is Daniel's dream film project and will eventually be made into a movie but as of yet, the time scale is uncertain. More often than not, Dan's mind heads to science fiction and fantasy themes and this is noticeable in all of his films. This is what distinguishes him from other writer/directors.
