About

Cameron Heyes

I’m an emerging screenwriter from Lancashire. I write grounded crime drama, folk horror and comedy, built on dialogue that sounds like the people I grew up around: dry, quick, and never quite saying the thing they mean.

Before scripts, I spent nearly two decades as a visual storyteller in music, directing videos for artists you’ve heard of. That background shapes every page: I write what the camera can see, and I know what a scene costs.
