The House in Ireland – a short film

It felt long overdue to make a wee video of some kind, so I decided to get reflective (It being a reflective time of year and all) about the old family home in Longford.

In typical fashion, I used a bunch of footage that I initially shot without an intended purpose – I deemed a chunk of it fairly unusable, but it felt a shame to not try and put it into something, so supplementing it with some old family VHS footage felt like the best happy medium.

Bewildered 23′ – Creatures of the Deep

This summer I had the pleasure of bringing together the 2023 highlight reel for the truly fantastic, up-and-coming Devon based music festival known as Bewildered.

Across two and a half days, I documented the wide array of musical talent on offer, as well as the incredible festival site itself – which was brought together by a plethora of incredibly talented local artists and creatives – all of whom made it exceptionally hard to condense the magic of the weekend into just a 2 minute reel.

Wildflower – a short film

Wildflower is the first instalment of filmmakers Alex McPake & Mac Nixon’s ‘Places’ series.

‘Places’ is an experimental collaborative project between the two that flips the process of traditional filmmaking by shooting interesting locations and then constructing a narrative retrospectively.

Richard Meyrick Guitars

I had such a fantastic day filming and chatting with the very talented Richard Meyrick Guitars about his craft and guitar making passions for this project. Sifting through endless 4K 60fps footage of Richards process made the edit a joy to put together too.
