About me
I focus on producing short-form film content and photography for a range of clients, including international brands, independent businesses and non-profit organisations, collaborating with a variety of media outlets, PR agencies and production companies. I began my journey as a camera operator on a number of cooking and travel shows, before moving into food photography and then naturally progressing into directing and shooting branded content. My passion for all aspects of filmmaking enabled me to pick up a variety of skills along the way, from sound-recording to editing and I’m constantly developing the methods I use to communicate ideas and tell stories. When I began learning After Effects for motion graphics in the summer of 2020, I discovered a renewed passion for animation, in particular stop-motion, and derive great satisfaction in bringing life to objects through a variety of techniques and materials. In the Winter of 2021, I became an Aardman Academy Alumni after completing three months of industry training on their Motion 1 course.
