About me

Dan has always been in awe of the effect cinema can have on a viewer, taking an interest in narratives which moved him from an early age. With a strong understanding of the filmmaking process and a passion for the technical aspects, he’s found himself drawn to beautiful imagery and fast-paced modern camerawork. His recent work has delved further into his interest in narrative storytelling, melding the two worlds of style and substance to create stories with a visual punch. He is always keen to push creatives and play with new techniques to tell a story.
