About me
A Creative Director and 1st AD with experience of creating, developing and producing outstanding and critically celebrated work.Through my work as a 1st Assistant Director on features, dramas and music videos, I learnt the power of stories, and the importance of telling them in an engaging and memorable way. Between larger scale productions, I tended to shoot TV commercials, and after spending time in various studios with ‘Creatives’, I saw a way of being able to incorporate my love of ideation and writing, as well as my passion for the practical side of filmmaking. Essentially, these people were trying to tell stories too, but they had a fraction of the time to do it, and a tough task of making people care about them. I moved into commercials full time in 2010, quickly gaining experience, confidence and success in the field, whilst also managing to be at the creative helm during filming.
My previous work gave me a good grounding for the switch. I love stories, and I love how they can influence culture, start a conversation, and capture the imagination. I continue to create, seek out and develop stories in all formats that will make an impact on the viewer.
