Starting as a tea boy, Adam Biddle’s first job in the industry was with RSA Films on the iconic Apple commercial ‘1984’. After initially working in production, Adam decided to join the camera department and never looked back.
Making his way up through the ranks, he honed his skill working with the best the industry had to offer – on some of the biggest and most successful movies ever made. Braveheart, The Mummy, Interview With A Vampire, Star Wars The Phantom Menace, 007 The World Is Not Enough are to name but a few of his full feature credits.
Moving up to DP, Adam set about building his show reel in the genre he’d grown up in, commercials. After adding some 2nd unit feature work to his resume (Bridget Jones Diary, An American Haunting), it was only a matter of time before he would helm a Hollywood feature. This came to fruition with ‘Crank’ starring Jason Statham, which garnered much attention for its distinctive and kinetic style.
Never afraid to branch out and experiment to broaden his perspective, Adam has shot documentaries with his friend Charles Annenberg and his Explore Foundation. They include fact-finding trips to Darfur, the Genocide museum in Rwanda, drug rehabilitation projects in Vancouver, championing Native American organizations whilst river rafting down the Grand Canyon and most recently Polar bears on the tundra of Manitoba!
Returning his focus to narrative work, Adam shot Porcelain Unicorn, which was selected by Ridley Scott as the winner of the Phillips Parallel Lines Competition. This gave Adam particular satisfaction coming from his mentor for so many years.
Adam currently splits his time between London and Los Angeles, and holds dual UK/US citizenship and passports. He is the younger brother of the late, great, cinematographer Adrian Biddle.
James Little at the Screen Talent Agency, London, currently represents him worldwide.
