Mark Anthony is a Yorkshire-based writer, producer, and director with over 30 years’ experience in drama, education, and screen production. He began his career in performance and theatre education before moving into television and independent film, building a reputation for thoughtful, story-driven work.

Mark has worked across a wide range of productions in supporting roles, with credits including The Responder, The Hunt for Raoul Moat, Vera, and 28 Years Later. Alongside his professional credits, he is currently undertaking an MA in Producing for Film and Television at Teesside University, where his work focuses on historical drama, regional identity, and emotionally resonant storytelling.

His upcoming short film, Sweetheart: Angel of the Moor, is based on the true 1858 murder of his ancestor Mary-Jane Skaife. The project reflects his passion for bringing forgotten voices and working-class women’s stories to the screen — stories rooted in the past but speaking powerfully to the present.
