Altman is also responsible for making the 'We Will Sing' documentary-gig featuring Glen Hansard.

Acclaimed director Scott Altman's short film Riot Club is now available on Amazon Prime Video.

Starring Alan Ford, who also played the role of Brick Top in Guy Ritchie's Snatch, Adam Fogerty (Legend), Natasha Byrne (Holby City) and new talents, the short is an urban comedy following the story of Eddie Belmont, a former boxer, who now manages a boxing club for teenagers with his colleague Barry Rig.

In 2013, Altman won the Wide Eye Media (formerly Carlton Screen Advertising) Director of the Year award for his cinema advert to promote Hot Press. He also filmed a documentary to aid homelessness in Dublin, involving Glen Hansard and Jim Sheridan. We Will Sing went on to win Best Documentary at the Dublin International Film Festival.
