…the making of… Fun film to make. I was not keeping proper notice of the takes we took, which meant for one scene the only take we had was not a good one, and had to patch it up. Worked out okay though. 1 18 January 2018 Solo
Where's Wally? Made as an exercise in putting a film together from random clips. Clips all from www.pexels.com 1 16 March 2021 Solo
Wake Up! Modern gadgets to wake you up! 1 12 March 2023 Animation
Vox Pop 2 When I wrote the original Vox Pop I wrote too much for a 1 minute film, but we decided to film it anyway and make a second film from it. Again, we were using lavalier (clip on) microphones, but unfortunately a problem with the recording meant we had to use the sound recording from the camera, which is why there’s so much traffic noise. 1 25 January 2018 RFVM Actors
Vox Pop This was written for a 1 minute film competition. It turned out to be around 1:07 so is speeded up to fit into the time.We were using lavalier (clip on) microphones, but unfortunately a problem with the recording meant we had to use the sound recording from the camera, which is why there’s so much traffic noise. 1 25 January 2018 RFVM Actors
Treasure Hunt! Can they find the secret treasure? 1 27 March 2019 RFVM Actors
The Vampire After reading too much, a girl thinks she may be a vampire! 2 10 November 2018 RFVM Actors

The Loser William lost big on a hand of poker, psychologist Amanda thinks she can help but doesn't know the real reason why he lost! 7 4 December 2019 External Actors
The Intruder Who is the mysterious intruder??

This film contains a reference to something that anyone under 40 may not understand - I'll be interested to see what people think of it! The ending will make more sense if you google "All because the lady loves Milk Tray".

First experiment with new camera - you can tell I got some of the settings wrong!

The Friend Zone Will Bob ever date Alice or is he stuck in the Friend Zone? 1 12 February 2023 Animation

Paris When I was writing this script I had a vision for how it would turn out, and it didn’t quite work in a few key points. It’s a valuable lesson in understanding what’s practically possible and writing to that, rather than imagining an ideal result and hoping it will work out. There’s a few shots I wish we’d recorded at the time but didn’t realise the need until I was editing.

This was my first attempt at editing a film, and the first time I’ve done any significant direction. There’s various points when I should have given better direction to the actors.
