I am a film maker focusing on ethnographic documentary in Sierra Leone.
I recently completed my MA at the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology, University of Manchester.
My final film was 'Shooting Freetown' - which combined observational documentary with collaborative music/drama projects to explore the emerging creative arts industry in Sierra Leone. It is currently showing at festivals around the world, was nominated for the One World Media Awards 2012 and won Best Student Short Documentary at the Manchester Film Festival 2012.
I currently live in Manchester, working in film making and Visual Anthropology, collaborating with West African musicians in the city and editing my recently shot documentary Beyond Freetown: The Moa River Journey (Due Late 2013).
