Just Remember: Be Nice To Ghosts
FEATURED FILMS
In a near-future America ruled by a fascist theocracy, a desperate radio signal calling for help is sent backwards through time. In a drab present-day Britain, a politically detached loner receives the message by chance - but he finds himself powerless to prevent the coming catastrophe.
👻
Last year,
strange recordings appeared on my phone:
cryptic ramblings from a gruff Californian.
In attempting to figure out how they got there,
I stumbled upon LA Ham Radio.
The anger of Evangelical Talk Radio
reflected the moment;
the ground Reform UK gained in the July 4th Elections here in England, and the
death obsessed Trump Campaign in the States.
I started working on a film about a radio
broadcasting a warning from the future.
I picked it back up earlier this year, after Trump's inauguration. This film became Blue Light Entity;
a psychological horror that serves as a nightmare depiction of doomscrolling.

In the midst of the Atomic Age,
an infertile couple’s life becomes an inescapable nightmare after they participate
in an experimental clinical trial
that leads to the birth of a mushroom baby.
🍄
Shroom Baby is a unique send up to the horror genre. Part political satire, part B-Movie send up, part apocalyptic body horror. All playing out in a story about parenting and the unexpected horrors o parenthood and childhood
Satirical and absurd with a grand sense of scale
and a beating heart - a couple stuck in a horrific situation that they cannot control.
“A brand spanking new 1960s black and white body horror with gross practical effects and charm coming out of it's mushroom head.“
“ Part David Lynch, part David Cronenberg, and part Universal Monsters. A rather well rounded horror short that wears the B-movie outfit. “
“ The end of the film has the greatest reveal in all of cinema... that the director does an excellent David Lynch impression. “

EDITING
You want your viewers to feel something, right? Then I might be your guy.
I’m an editor who thinks outside of the box to create bold, cinematic content with a distinct visual identity.
I want to help brands and artists create content that’s impactful, memorable and authentic.
I have ten years of editing experience, and five years on Da Vinci Resolve.

PHOTOGRAPHY
Event Photography, Production Photography and Stills.
I work across an eclectic mix of cameras, formats and mediums,
focusing on the relationships between people and their environments.
My main driver is a Fuji XS10 DSLR. I shoot in RAW and edit on Lightroom.
For vibes, I use one of my digicams: a Lumix, a Fuji Finepix or a beat up old Nikon.
On special occasions, I shoot on 35mm with a Pentax Zoom 105R.
- Basic Photography Package (2-3 hours, 15-20 edited images): £150
