WILLEM VOLKER IS A BELGIUM BASED FREELANCE FILM DIRECTOR, PHOTOGRAPHER AND WRITER. AFTER SPENDING ALMOST A DECADE TRAVELLING THE GLOBE TO SHOOT SKATEBOARDING AND SURF FILMS UNDER HIS 'WILLY CRANK' MONIKER, THROUGH ADDITIONAL STUDIES AT THE ROYAL ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS (KASK) WILLY HAS ORGANICALLY GROWN INTO BEING A FILM DIRECTOR.

MAINLY WORKING IN COMMERCIAL FILM, WILLY'S VISION SEEMLESSLY APPLIES TO FICTION AND A COMBINATION OF GENRES. IN BOTH HIS CINEMATIC AND PHOTOGRAPHIC WORK, JUXTAPOSITION AND TECHNICAL NOSTALGIA ARE KEY ELEMENTS.

WITH A STRONG VISUAL CORE, HIS STYLE PROVIDES THE PERFECT NEST FOR THE NARRATIVE TO FIND ITS BIRTH IN. AS A MULTIFACETED ARTIST, WILLY PREFERS NOT TO BE SEEN AS ONE PARTICULAR THING. WHILE SHIFTING GEARS BETWEEN DIRECTING, PHOTOGRAPHY AND WRITING POETRY, HIS CREATIVITY AND FEEL FOR STORYTELLING IS NEVER NOT EVOLVING.

WILLY HAS A SIDE-PROJECT CALLED PARTICLE LIFE, WHERE HE CURATES PHOTOGRAPHIC WORK FROM PEOPLE HE PERSONALLY APPRECIATES AND KNOWS.
