Nathan, a young, drug-loving uni-graduate, thinks he can have it all: easy money, highs without the lows, and the girl of his dreams. But when he pits his wits against the city’s most notorious dealer, he rapidly discovers that in business and in pleasure, there’s no supply without demands, and people are rarely who they seem.

This was originally shot for a music video competition, however I was unhappy with my final edit so have re-edited the footage into an artistic piece that I am more than happy with.
The model in the video is Jenna-Louise Hollins.

Please enjoy.

“No Worries” was created as a competition piece for Virgin Media Shorts 2011

It was filmed in 30 minutes and took two weeks to edit due to all the visual effects.

An artistic shoot I did for my portfolio. Thanks to my friend and model Jenna-Lousie Hollins for being part of the film. Filmed on a 550D and fully colour corrected in after effects.

The idea was to give a peaceful, almost dreamlike state to the video. I wanted to create something that was simple and beautiful to watch and enjoy.

Hopefully that was achieved.

This sort of motion graphics is called “Kinetic Typography”. I chose the dialogue from The Dark Knight trailer, which looking back was a bit of a tough choice as some of the speach was pretty fast. Nonetheless, im happy with the result. Took me about two days working on it inbetween another project.

So Enjoy!

A short film I wrote and directed myself. Starring my friend Will Richards, I wanted to tell a story about love and loss and what that loss could lead to using little to no dialogue.

Edited in Prem Pro, and Titles/Effects/Grading in After Effects.

As Always… Enjoy.

A spur of the moment artistic shot located in Brighton. I wanted to create a short video, something to show the calming effect of the beach upon city life.

As always, Enjoy!
