ABOUT GAVIN CATT -
SCIENCE FICTION AUTHOR AND FILMMAKER

Gavin Catt has always loved reading Science Fiction and being creative. Gavin loved creative writing in school, but he was never encouraged to do so. In 2011 Gavin started writing music, and around 2015, decided to try to write his first book, however, he didn't know how. Gavin decided to take note of the various writing techniques of various Sci Fi authors, and he has developed his own flowing narrative style. At the start of 2019, he was ready, but he was still developing concepts, and in October 2019, Gavin started to write his debut novel, "Sanctuary".

​

"Sanctuary" was the first novel released in the Sanctuary Series in October 2021, and then "Prelude to Sanctuary" following early in 2022. In late November 2022 "Project Genesis" is released. "The Dimension War" started the publishing process in August 2022 and "Sanctuary: Destiny" was submitted to Olympia Publishers in September 2023. "Sanctuary: Destiny" is the final novel in the five novel Sanctuary Series.

​

Gavin has said that "I have changed the order of the books from the order published, to an order that better reflects the story line in this groundbreaking series."

​

The order is "Prelude to Sanctuary" (Book One), "Sanctuary" (Book Two), "Project Genesis" (Book Three), 

"The Dimension War" (Book Four) and "Sanctuary: Destiny" (Book Five).

​

Gavin is now working on his next Science Fiction novel.

​

Gavin is passionate about quality story lines, with believable technologies and characters. Gavin Catt is writing prolifically and is constantly exploring the Science Fiction genre and new ideas. It’s incredibly hard work, but Gavin is never happier than when he is sitting down at a desk or table, writing words for a new book, or typing out his manuscript drafts.

​

Gavin is a passionate filmmaker who likes to produce his own promotional videos and recently completed a digital restoration of the Australian Cinematic release version of Fitz Lang's classic silent movie from 1927, "Metropolis". Ever since the original release of the film, the running time has been drastically cut by censors across the globe to around 80 minutes. Originally purchased from an Opportunity Shop in Melbourne, Australia in 1998 for $40, Gavin took the film stock to a film restorer that he knew (now deceased) that assisted in scanning each individual film frame in 1080i FHD 1920 x 1080. Due to the silver nitrate nature of the film, Gavin utilized the safety reduction print version at the same time and create a version that is similar to other restorations around the world as the film had degraded in similar ways to other prints of the film. Gavin used similar restoration techniques to other restoration projects around the world.

 

Released in Australia in 1928, "Metropolis" was way ahead of its time and is still held in high regard by many filmmakers and directors.
