Danial Donai
Founder | Writer | Director - SilverFox Films
Danial M.A. Donái is an Australian filmmaker and founder of SilverFox Films, bringing over 45 years of experience working within the international film industry, including extensive time in Hollywood. Throughout his career, Danial has worked across major studio productions and alongside some of the industry’s most respected filmmakers, contributing to projects led by internationally recognised directors and creative teams. His work within large-scale production environments has provided him with valuable insight into cinematic storytelling, production discipline, and the collaborative processes behind globally successful films.
Drawing on this experience, Danial now focuses on developing character-driven genre stories with international appeal, combining Hollywood-informed filmmaking practices with the efficiency and innovation of independent production. His creative approach blends grounded realism with cinematic scale, often exploring themes of loyalty, identity, power, and the psychological complexities of human relationships.
Through SilverFox Films, Danial is committed to developing distinctly Australian stories with global cinematic impact, combining the unique landscapes and voices of Australia with the scale and storytelling ambition associated with international productions. His current flagship project, John the Revelator, is an action-drama feature inspired by the unsolved 1973 Kuranda Rail Motor train robbery and is currently being developed through a proof-of-concept short film designed to demonstrate the project’s tone, visual style, and production feasibility.
