Dave Rigby was born, raised and continues to be educated in his native Salford. Having completed an HND in Professional Sound and Video Technology in 2001, Dave spent a year working in the radio industry as a Commercial Producer before returning to the University of Salford in 2002 to complete a BA in Television and Radio Production.

Whilst on the course, Dave worked as a Producer for Channel M Televisions culture show Interference.

Following graduation Dave launched Insite Media Ltd, a small media production company who specialized in the presentation and promotion of sites of cultural and architectural significance.

Dave left the company in late 2005 to take the role of Production Coordinator on the MA Television Documentary and MA Fiction Film Production Courses at the
University of Salford.

Dave has written and produced several short films including More Haste, Less Speed, which was nominated for best student short at the 2004 Salford Film Festival. His most recent film How To Be Better was completed in Mid 2005.

In September 2006 Dave intends to develop his primary interest by undertaking an MA in Screenwriting also at the University of Salford.

Aside from film making Dave is an avid music fan. Moving away from the more traditional orchestral music, which saw him tour Europe as a youngster, Dave has spent the last 6 years Djing at many of Manchester’s top bars and nightclubs.
