Teys Schucany
Directing
Biography
Teys grew up in the commune, Kæphøj, established in the 80’s in Roskilde, where he has lived most of his childhood (with the exception of 1,5 years in California and the 1st grade in the small town of Charlestown, Australia). As a kid Teys wrote chapters for fantasy novels, and he wrote summaries for tv-shows, which he would later play out in the backyard. Here he would make sure to say his “lines” in different angles, so it would look like what he saw on TV, when doing his homework after school. Teys initially directed theater and musical productions in his hometown, Roskilde, but has directed films since 2014. In spite of the magical fantasy stories Teys was working on in his childhood room, today he is curious about people from real life, and he wants to display the poetry found in the everyday-drama through his film. Teys is drawn by the small stories, which like building blocks through life make a human being; whether it be heartbreak, a fading friendship, identity crisis or something completely different. On a daily basis Teys works as a TV-producer for the production company, Made By Us.
