Fan Yang is a film student based in London.
His friends call him Fan. He was born in Jingzhou, a small city near Wuhan. Until the age of 17, he spent six days a week at school, studying Chinese, maths, English and other core subjects. Almost all of his limited free time (and some lecture time too) was devoted to films, novels and computer games.
In 2019, at the age of 19, Fan came to the UK to study Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Leeds, bringing with him a natural talent for maths and the hopes of his parents. After four gruelling years, he somehow managed to graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in 2023. During that time, he finally came to realise that film—not algorithms—was his true passion.
In the autumn of 2023, he was fortunate enough to be admitted to the MA Ethnographic and Documentary Film (Practical) course at University College London, embarking on a challenging journey into filmmaking from scratch. At the end of his first term, he received his very first camera—a Panasonic S1H—thanks to the support of his parents. He eventually graduated with Merit and obtained his Master’s degree.
Fan now works as a freelance photographer and filmmaker based in London. He is skilled in both shooting and editing, and is eager to work on projects related to short-form marketing videos, micro-dramas, and still photography.
杨帆是一名居住在伦敦的电影学生。
他的朋友们管他叫帆，他出生于武汉旁边的一个小城市荆州。在他17岁前，他一周要花6天的时间在学校学习语文、数学、英语等科目。为数不多的闲暇时间（以及有些上课时间）他全用在了电影、小说和电脑游戏上。
2019年，19岁的杨帆带着他的数学天赋和父母的期待前往英国利兹大学学习计算机科学与人工智能。经过4年煎熬，他于2023年侥幸取得了理学学士学位。在此期间，他意识到电影才是他的真正热爱。
2023年秋，他幸运地入学了伦敦大学学院的民族志与纪录片（实践）专业，开始了艰难的零基础电影学习之路。在第一学期结束时，他获得了他人生中第一台相机-松下S1H，由他的父母赞助。然后，他顺利的以merit的成绩毕业，获得了硕士文凭。
现在，杨帆是活跃在伦敦的自由摄影师。他擅长拍摄、剪辑，渴望从事短视频营销、短剧、摄影等相关工作。
