Drama, comedy and (semi-retired) music video Director. Yes, I edit my own stuff, and shoot much of it too, but that's not important. Used to be a moderately prominent DSLR blogger before realising it was all getting way too much in the way of pursuing a career in drama. A proper career.

Regular collaborator? Gez Medinger. Co-director on all drama projects. People don't understand how it works. But that's okay.

Value: stories that grab you by the balls and don't let go.
Don't value: Pompous film and camera bloggers

    Thanks man ,it was a real struggle to get round the city and I really didn't feel like I had enough material. Architecture is incredibly difficult to shoot anyway so it was definitely a tough one.

    Haha, cool man. First couple of minutes were shot on a 5D just by the by, then we had an FS100 on set for the rest.

    Hey Mario, it's lovely, really have to ask yourself what you're actually watching, and I like that there's a little bit more going on than just the standard Tilt shift. It's charming, we've kind of seen it before so it's not new but that does nothing to diminish the charm of some of the setups. Definitely some gloriously surreal ones in there, and it keeps you wondering what's coming next.
