Ross Stringer studied animation at Farnham University, and made his first film, Trunk Calls, which was screened at numerous festivals. He developed a rather experimental style of filmmaking, but his time at the National Film and Television School (NTFS) developed his interest in traditional storytelling, which led to the production of Crab Day.
