Dixon was born in Bath, United Kingdom to an artist and painter and vintage car restorer.
He moved with his family to Andalusia, Spain when he was seven years old. Studying art and design he began working as a graphic artist and moved to Australia in his late teens. After graduating from Art college, Dixon began his career in marketing by working for a Japanese publishing house and spent time in Tokyo and Osaka, Japan.
After several years he returned to Australia and hired a small film studio where he wrote, directed, edited, produced, and animated, "Force Five" a stop animation film.
"Force Five" followed five secret agents who where part of C.E.N.T.E.R (Central Enforcement Network Targeting Evil Rogues) who would parachute into southern Bavaria during WW2 in order to kill the head of O.C.T.O (Official Crime & Terror Organisation). Dixon built the sets and designed the miniature characters by using remote control technology with mini servers in the characters heads.
The movie was shot on a Bolex 16mm film camera. To fund his film he word work part-time for a SPFX company, building movie props and set pieces for Fox Studios.
Moving to Sydney in 2001, Dixon began working on his first feature film.
The story follows two brothers trapped inside a comic book and caught up in a scheme to blackmail the Devil out of his souls. In 2007 Dixon wrote the screenplay for Origin Unknown, a WW2 horror/creature movie that takes place in the catacombs of German occupied Paris on 19 August 1944, the day of liberation. He produced and directed a 6-minute faux scene segment for it and began shopping it around the studios in Hollywood.
While under the management of The Collective, in Beverly Hills, the film was being packaged and pre sold to foreign territories Dixon was signed to the Paradigm Talent Agency.
Once the global financial crisis of 2007–2008 hit, many of the financiers were forced to back out of the project leaving it in limbo. After trying to resurrect it Dixon later signed with (WME) William Morris Endeavor to develop other projects.
In 2010, Dixon returned to Australia and began working on his next film Wrath, a horror film set in the Australian outback. A worldwide release was planned with Arclight Films but the deal fell apart and the movie was release internationally on Digital Video Disc and Pay television through Lightning Entertainment in 2011.
