Crew Listing


Description

My passion lies in directing stories that captivate audiences, particularly within the genres of horror, thriller, and comedy. These genres offer the opportunity to explore the extremes of human emotion and behaviour, from the suspenseful and chilling to the light-hearted and absurd. I aim to create films that entertain, provoke thought, and resonate deeply with viewers.

I am drawn to projects that challenge conventional narratives and delve into meaningful themes. My feature film, *Teddy and the Mountain*, a romantic comedy-drama, exemplifies this. The story weaves humour, love, and resilience into a poignant exploration of living with brain cancer. This project highlights my dedication to telling stories that balance emotional depth with engaging entertainment, connecting audiences to authentic human experiences.

As a director, I bring a holistic understanding of filmmaking to my work. My knowledge of cinematography and producing allows me to communicate effectively with key collaborators, ensuring a seamless integration of visual storytelling and production elements. I understand the technical and creative language of cinematographers and producers, enabling me to translate vision into practical execution while fostering a collaborative environment on set.

Ultimately, my focus is on directing narratives that leave a lasting impression—whether by eliciting suspense, laughter, or profound reflection. I am committed to pushing creative boundaries and delivering stories that inspire and engage audiences worldwide.


Special Interests

People are my special interest.
The audience.
They are the only person that matters.
Entertain them, amaze them, make them happy, make them sad.
But don't don't for the love of God bore them.
Never preach to them, they can go to church for that.

The viewer is on my mind from looking at how much things cost to the angle of a shot to the delivery of a line. Is this the best I can do? If the answer is no, then I do better for the viewer.

I've spent many years studying people, trying to understand them.
I even worked as a therapist for some years.
This all plays into understanding the viewer and what they expect.
