About me

I'm a film director/videographer and consider myself both technical and creative having trained at Drama Centre London and Met Film School. I love working with and developing actors/characters but I also love to work with clients to develop their ideas from script to screen. I believe that liaising with the whole production team is of great benefit to any organisation. I also greatly enjoy composing music and performing live, singing and playing keys in various international gigs, festivals and other unique arts venues.

  Titled by Lana MacIverWritten, directed, and performed by singer/songwriter and filmmaker Lana MacIver, comes 'Titled', Lana's debut single. Winner of the 'Best Music Film' at the Portobello Film Festival 2016. 'Titled' is a song that was originally inspired from a somewhat disappointing phone call Lana had with a professional psychic about her future. The psychic couldn't give Lana any real answers to her questions due to legal constraints. At the time, being 18 years old, she was feeling lost and alone in such a vast city like London and was looking for answers. In the end, Lana found her way by using her bitter love affair and loneliness as an experience to help guide her into her coming of age.
• WannabesWannabes is a web series about wannabe actors who attend a drama school in the UK. It has just finished it's first season and has been winning various awards around the globe. I have directed the first 3 episodes and was nominated for 'Best Director' at the Miami Web Fest.
