My Work, My Vision

A Passion for Filmmaking

I am currently studying Filmmaking at Leeds Beckett University, whilst working with Forge Photography Ltd, undertaking the following roles on most of their productions; DoP, Assistant Director, Camera Operative and Editor. I am using the Canon C500 MKII and/or C200 MKII at least one day per week, the former since January 2020 and the latter since July 2018. I have also undertaken the role of camera operator with the DJI Inspire 2 UAV, utilising the X7 camera and prime lenses.

My work has taken me to Europe and throughout the UK, where I have shot documentaries, pilot series for producers, Pond 5 footage for filmmakers and corporate/team building promotional films and stills. Clients have included; Bluebell Railway, CPMS Group, Bedford Blues Rugby, Canoe Trail, Pizzeria Santaniello, AB Fruits, Neureiter Maschinen und Werkzeuge (Austria), Em-J Smith (producer/actress), Dane Foxx (actor), Emily Seaton (poet), Hussain Manawar (Poet), Little Abodes, Bromham Parish Council, Historic Assynt Society, Rushmoor School Bedford, St Andrews School Bedford and Ratchet Clothing. I have also worked alongside BBC local news teams and BBC Children in Need production team, which has taught me a lot about the importance of communication on a tight set.
