Profile

A young, enthusiastic and creative cinematographer, a graduate of the BA (hons) course in Film Production from ‘The Art’s University College Bournemouth-Screen Academy’ where I specialised in cinematography.

I have photographed a diverse selection of projects, from Animations to Fiction and Documentaries. I am comfortable working with a variety of different formats including Film, HD and different digital mediums.

I have a broad experience of working in the camera department on Feature Films, TV Drama’s and Music Promo’s for a variety of very well established Cinematographers such as BSC members, Mike Valentine, Sam McCurdy and Witold Stock.

This experience as an assistant has given me a strong ‘on set’ background in the camera department, allowing me to develop my approach to both the creative aspects of cinematography as well as the technical and logistical sides.

While at the Bournemouth Screen Academy, I was mentored, taught and worked for the BSC Cinematographer Witold Stock.

Filmmaking and Cinematography is a true passion for me.  A craft and an art form that I wish to spend a lifetime exploring and developing within.
