About me
Where do i start? I suppose i start with:Storytelling.
I believe that everyone has their own story to tell, its just what and how you tell it that makes it worth listening to. The people that I am closest too and something that appears ordinary can become something magical and engaging inspire me.
I spent many years studying film and television at college and university and then spent 5 years in the industry as an Assistant Director and have the chance to work along side great visionary directors such as Ben Wheatley and Peter Strickland, working on independent feature films and television shows such as Broadchurch and Peaky Blinders.
Whilst working in the industry I have been directing films (shorts) and music videos. "My Dearest Jean" a short film that i had written and directed won an award with the Accolade Film Festival last year and was nominated for New Yorks Romance Film Festival and also Audience Awards competing films.
I love nothing more than being behind a camera working alongside people to tell stories in an engaging way that captured the emotion and focus of each spectator who views the video.
I want to start working more on projects with more impact on society and that are seen by a larger audience to promote to promote what i can do and how i can push my self to meet higher standards and needs of my employer.
I would love for people to get in touch and ask any questions they may have i am more than happy to answer them.
Get in Touch
Best,
Christian
