How can I help you?
I am a visual storyteller with a boundless passion for telling compelling stories that spark emotions with memorable words and images.
Although I mainly work as a writer-director, I have also been hired as a producer, edit producer, VFX set supervisor, cameraman and photographer. I have travelled extensively and worked on a diverse range of productions worldwide for a long list of clients including Discovery, National Geographic, Oxford Scientific Films, Aardman Animations and Dreamworks. Over the years, I have directed and produced many documentaries and TV commercials and also worked on TV series, True crime dramatic re-constructions, Feature films and Museum film installations, working with crews ranging from 3 to 100 in studios and on location in the UK, France, Turkey, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Indonesia, Aceh and Sri Lanka.
If I can ever be of help to your company, registered charity or not-for-profit organisation please get in touch.
