🎥Showreel 2025🎥

Here is the culmination of work I’ve filmed over the years. Feeling super grateful to have achieved a lot of dreams that younger me would have never believed could turn to reality, especially when I was working in the local pub saving hard for that first camera.

All filmmakers can relate to the somewhat painful process of building a showreel, desperately trying to pull footage from projects scattered across the countless archives. It’s a long but rewarding process that gives you a chance to reflect on all the wild adventures this job takes you.

It’s been a pleasure to work alongside some ridiculously talented people, travel the world and see some pretty cool things in this crazy crazy industry we get to be apart of.

Big shoutout goes to anyone that has helped or supported me so far, you know who you are, it means the world!

I’m excited as always to see what next year brings! Roll on 2025 🎥🚀

Dream series to work on! 🎥

@chelseafc ‘Connect With’ series for @threeuk , diving into football players interests off the pitch. From mini golf to sneakers, boxing to music it was a real fun series to film with a great crew.

Here are just a few of my frames from the series 👀

Seasonal Change - This Is Where Free Takes You - by Peak Performance

We linked back up with the team at Peak Performance for a shoot spotlighting their summer collection, as the seasons shift and winter turns into spring.

This time, we traded the snow-covered Alps for the remote beauty of Scotland’s northern highlands. The goal? To showcase the new summer line while capturing the sensory shift of spring - all while staying true to the spirit of “See Where Free Takes You.”

Big thanks to @giler.media for joining us on this one!

Work for QOC X Paris 2024 Olympics. 🎥🎥

Production: @weareconcept80
Agency: @felicihouse

Just one of the short docos myself and @edangeli123 created whilst on our mad trip around Europe chasing athletes (literally 🏃‍♂️💨) in their olympic training camps.

We had to work around hectic schedules, tight turnarounds and strict Olympic training programs but I loved being able to direct, shoot and edit these pieces on site. 🙏👨‍🍳
