Commercial

In 2021/22 I have worked on a number exciting video projects as Director of Photography. I have worked with brands such as Land Rover, Jumeirah Hotels and Stella McCartney. Below are some case studies of commercial projects I have worked on

Land Rover

In October 2022 I was hired by OLCO to DOP an advert for Land Rover’s new Hybrid Defender 4x4. This is the third production Ive worked with OLCO. We have previously worked on projects sponsored by Audi & Telsa. The previous film we created got the attention of Land Rover and landed us this exciting job.

We spent three weeks in the outer Hebrides shooting to the brief ‘The Hybrid Defender takes you places otherwise impossible to go’. The content we created will be used for social media advertising in the UK and Europe in 2023. The video is still in the edit, so very short preview is below.

Stella McCartney

In October 2021 I was commissioned to make a film for Stella McCarnety. The film focused on the organisations R&D into mycelium, the use of mushrooms in fashion; and the exhibition displaying this research at COP26, the UN’s annual climate change conference.

I also led a small four man team that captured photo and video of the COP 26 mycelium exhibition that McCartney brought to Glasgow. My team was responsible for all the content that went out across the Stella McCartney social media channels for the two weeks of COP.

Downstream (KPMG, Standard Life + Elekta)

In 2022 I made a series of films for Downstream, a global experimental design firm that delivers industry-leading spaces integrating interactive digital and physical experiences in global tech hubs, flagship retailers, major sports venues and other public and private destination environments around the world.

I was contracted to shoot three films for Downstream and there clients KPMG, Standard Life and Elekta. The films highlight the work and change Downstream has helped bring about through design.

Jumeriah - The Carlton Tower Hotel - AMV BBDO

In 2020, I was hired by AMV BBDO to direct a series of films for The Carlton Tower by Jumeriah, one of Londons most prestigious hotels.

I was tasked with producing a series of film about the $139 million refurbishment. The films focused on the design phase, the construction phase and the finished refurbished hotel.

Ultra Music Festival - Final Kid

In 2015 I started working regularly as a freelancer for the Amsterdam based production house, Final Kid. Together we have made films for numerous music festivals, concerts and high-end events all around the world. Most notably, I help cover Ultra music festival. The worlds biggest dance music festival.

I have now shot over forty editions of Ultra music festival with Final Kid. Each year I help cover the editions in Miami, Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore and China to name a few. This is one of my biggest yearly contracts. I usually film around eight festivals a year. In March 2023 I shot Ultra Abu Dhabi, Ultra South Africa and Ultra Miami. Below is a link to my film I helped produce with Ultra/Final Kid in 2022.

Since 2014 I have been working closely with Luke Jerram, the multidisciplinary artist, who's practices involves the creation of sculptures, installations and live artworks. Living in the UK, but working internationally, Jerram creates art projects which excite and inspire people around the world.

Alongside Jackson Kingsley at Cinematic Media, I have documented Lukes art projects for the last ten years. These include projects such as Crossings, Sky Orchestra, GAIA - Earth Artwork, Bridges not walls to name a few. Below are three of my favour projects from 2022. I directed, shot and edit all three of the films below.

The first was a launch film, the second a documentary about how the wine is made, and the third about whats happening in 2023. We will be working with Minerva throughout 2023/24 as they continue to expand.
