STUART ST PAULengaging after-dinner speaker
Variety Magazine USA July 2007 described Stuart as a multi-hyphenate; a man who has written, produced and directed. He has represented the UK at film festivals, has won and been nominated for awards all over the world, made movies all over the world, and given lecture tours and talks all over the world. This author,
broadcaster, stuntman and film maker is an engaging story teller and has even got unusual tales of fulfilling risk assessments for deliberate death defying activities - an ideal addition to corporate events.
Stuart directed the pick-up unit for Sherlock Holmes, Game of Shadows which was in part shot in Madalsfossen, Norway. He also discusses Norway’s tsunami disaster movie, The Wave, set in Alesund. He
literally jumps from jumping of off the Statue of Liberty in New York, for the movie American Werewolf in Paris to persuading rock legends Status Quo to swim with sharks in Fiji, to filming with leopards in the Wadi
Rum and Petra in Jordan for the movie Passion in the Desert based in Aqaba. His endless stories and explanations from filming between Belfast and Iceland for Game of Thrones to GOT in Dubrovnik, Angels and Demons in Rome, (Rome’s sell out tour) are all riveting. A full lecture series with Stuart is a ‘round the world in 80 days’ where Stuart cruises to the world’s film locations from Bollywood to Mediterraneanwood.
