About

My name is Brandon Boyd, I’m from Halifax, Nova Scotia. I am an autistic filmmaker, starting with my work with Reachability in 2014, now as a member working with the Atlantic Film Cooperative. My goal in the film industry is to become a film director to tell stories with the autistic community and the disabled community. I recently did a self-portrait project called “Dear Hollywood’ talking about the portrayal of autism in mainstream media. I believe as an industry we should be including actual disabled people in our stories and our industry!
