Garth is a filmmaker and cinematographer from South Africa. He was born in Nelspruit and realised during his teenage years that he had a passion in life for filmmaking. It's been over 10 years since and with countless projects under his belt, he has taken on his most ambitious project yet - single handedly filming an entire feature documentary for over 1 year called 'The last Horns of Africa'. We asked Garth to be one of our judges because of his experience in filmmaking and cinematography which will help to inspire another generation of filmmakers through the Isolation Film Festival. Garth is the second announced film festival judge of the 2nd Annual festival.
