BRAT is a Michelin-starred restaurant in East London, known for its Basque-style, fire-led cooking. It’s run by head chef @tomos_pp, originally from Anglesey, North Wales. Tomos and the @bratrestaurant team asked me to create an honest, documentary-style film that captures the history and heritage behind his cooking.

I wanted the film to feel raw and tactile, so I shot it mostly on 16mm, which definitely came with its challenges. For the darker scenes and extra B-roll, I used the Blackmagic G2, downscaled to 2K, paired with the same super speed lenses as the 16mm aaton camera. With some careful grading and added grain, I was super happy with the results, the footage blended very nicely.

It was a real pleasure collaborating with Tomos and the BRAT team—such a passionate, talented group who really care about what they do.

Pretty much all of this work will be unseen as I haven’t been able to share it publicly until now.
Thanks to all the great crew and cast from every project in this showreel, there’s far too many people to mention. One of the things I love most about film is that it’s always a collaboration. Thanks to the fantastic Directors below, thanks to Charlie for the great score, and special thanks also go to my Gaffers, Steadicam Operators, Dolly Operators, Focus Pullers, ACs, Sparks and Colourists.

RIP Meg our beautiful friend and special soul 🤍🤍🤍

You were so kind, thoughtful, funny, an incredible cook, a wonderful Mum to Jack and so much more ♥️

We really bonded over our love for vanlife and you were amazing at building them out. You were one of those people who could do anything they set their minds too, and I loved that about you. ♥️

It’s hard to put into words the feeling of losing someone so young to cancer. Especially someone who’s your own age, and who has so much life left to live. It’s just so unfair and so utterly heartbreaking 💔

It’s been such a surreal time and there are no words that can describe it. You start to question everything and yet it puts so much into perspective as well. Life is so precious, and we are only on this beautiful planet for a limited amount of time.

Hold on to those you love, take loads of photos and videos to look back on.
And tell everyone how you feel and that you love them, as you never know when or if you’ll see them again 😢

My heart goes out to all Meg’s family and friends in Poland, her beautiful son Jack and to her partner Josh at this heartbreaking time ♥️

Some beautiful memories in Sardinia with Meg last year, and the last message I had off her 💔
