Biography
Biography
Tanit graduated from Siam Vocational School. He started in the movie business as a film-poster artist. In 1985 he was the co-director on Suem Noi Noi Galon Mark Noi ("Happy Go Lucky") with Adirek Wattaleela, better known in Thailand simply as "Uncle". Uncle would go on to produce Bangrajan. Tanit made his name doing historical battle epics and directing a string of them; Bang Rajan, Legend of the Warlord and Sema: Warrior of Ayutthaya. He has however worked in many genres including horrors (Art of the Devil and Narok), crime-action (102 Bangkok Robbery) and comedy (Andaman Girl). He won best director honors at the Thailand National Film Awards for Bang Rajan. The film was also screened at the 2000 Fantasia Festival, where it was placed second in the international competition.
