About Me

I am a second year student that will obsess over film making when the right idea is in my head, I love cinematography and analysing the key aspects in film. I also enjoy working with others and I often imitate ideas I’ve seen in film or tv and give them my own interpretation or recreate them with my own ideas and style.

First year Films and Projects

Everyday Activity Short Film

This was the first film i had ever made on my own and was a simple idea that i believe worked well for a short low budget film, i only had me and my dad to produce this film so we had to play around with ideas to create suspense and horror such as making the ghost be represented through a first person POV.

Documentary

For this film i had been asked to produce a documentary of any kind so i decided that i would make one about my hometown ‘Nailsea’ as it has lots of history in the production of glassmaking. When creating this film i decided that i would attempt a mockumentary part of the film which i believed to be very comedic.

Experimental Media Project

For this project i decided that i would experiment with perspective on a camera lens and went around my house during its extension works and used this as an opportunity to shine a different perspective on how we view day to day objects.

The Mission

This was a group film shot in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and was directed by myself. This film takes you through lots of build up and suspense for and ending that subverts your expectations.
