Make It Funky – Funky Pigeon
I had an incredible amount of fun working on this 3 part series for Funky Pigeon as a Camera Operator.
All episodes were flash mob style, live, one take setups shot using the Sony FS7 with CN7 zoom – a devilish duo for filmmaking!

Oak Furnitureland I Winter Sale 2019
A typical Oak Furnitureland TV ad and a typical Oak Furnitureland digital ad resepctively. Both created during my time working with the company while at Wordley Creative.
During this time I was mainly found writing scripts, editing offline adverts and directing weekly VO’s for a host of TV and digital campaigns.

First Time ‘Freeprinters’
Directed by Alex McPake at Wordley Creative.
Working with FreePrints on this short form social media campaign was a really enjoyable experience. This ended up being a really wholesome shoot – interviewing a series of people taking immense joy in revisiting some of the photos that capture their most favourite memories.

Pet Deaths – Lola or Lolita (Live @ Sofar Sounds Cardiff)
A track taken from Pet Deaths mesmerising Sofar Sounds Cardiff set at the cities Sull Space.
Amongst the footage recorded that night, I found this additional track ‘lola or lolita’ which features on the bands debut album ‘To the Top of the Hill and Roll…’ It felt wrong to let such a beautiful performance sit unseen on a hard drive, so I felt obliged to share this almost forgotten edit.
Thank you to Sofar Sounds for allowing me to document this and for always supporting cities and their local music scenes.
