About me
Hey, how are you? I'm Marcus, I have 20+ years in film production and I'm born in the north of England. I left school and moved to the south at 16 years old, where I began working with a design agency.My intention was always to return to school and study at Central Saint Martins, but after cutting my teeth with clients, learning on the job seemed to make more sense for me. After a few years travelling with musicians, filming them in the studio and on the road, living in The States and working mainly in California, I've returned to Blighty and settled in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, with my wife Hélène, our three kids and our dogs Pork Chop and Pepperoni.
I try to keep my work varied, I love to work on both high-end and low-budget projects but most importantly well-crafted; I have work primarily as a Director and DP but over the past year the main focus has been as an Editor. For most of the projects I've worked on, I would edit or rough cut the films, so it was a natural progression to be hired solely as an editor but with the eye and experience of both a Director and DP
Agencies and production companies bringing me in to either create pitches and scripts, or work with their existing creative. My wife and I founded The Birdhouse Studio in 2018 and its given us the opportunity to focus on small and large projects, from concept to completion or any stage in between.
Pre-production and the often tight turn-arounds bring me a real joy, I love a good deadline and its matched in the energy and passion I have for being on a set.
I have Directed, DP'd and Edited music videos for artists such as Julia Michaels and Raleigh Ritchie and interviewed artists from Billie Eilish to Eric Clapton. I've shot live events in fields and on cruise ships, with bands such as Vintage Trouble and Beth Hart.
Whilst I love to work on music projects, I have also Directed, DP'd and Edited brand films and social spots for clients including Lamborghini, Mars, Google, Barclays, Virgin Media, Jaguar Land Rover, Lotus Cars, Chevrolet and Ford.
I'm always on the look out to collaborate, extend my network and work with a great team - so let's talk!
