I'm a freelance director and producer new to Bristol! I'm looking to get my teeth stuck into new briefs and meet fellow creatives. I've been directing branded content, commercials and short films for the past eight years.

A short film I wrote, directed and produced which is now streaming on Minute Shorts as well as my YouTube channel. Lena tries to defy the mandatory conscription imposed on her partner, Harry, by attempting to escape the drop-off point tog

A short film I wrote, directed and produced: Spiral. On the brink of a panic attack, a teacher transforms her anxiety into rhythm, air-drumming her way to a state of zen. As she drums, the classroom starts to explode all around her.

A short film I wrote, directed and produced - Last Drop. Played Aesthetica Film Festival, Shots.net, Directors Notes and Omeleto. A man mourning the loss of his father and slowly turning into an alcoholic is confronted by a strange voice.

I wrote and directed a 30 second commercial for Shea Creams. The challenge was to tell a story that involved all body types. It was selected for the Young Arrows as well as the Porsche Awards and Berlin Commercial Awards.

Challenged with telling the story of a jumper in 30 seconds. The story of a woman on a mission to create her own tomato sauce - the jumper sticks with her through thick and thin. Finalist at the Young Arrows.

A promotional film for Royal Russell School I directed for Toast TV. The campaign was all about what success means to you. A live action and animation brief.

A branded shoot for Nike and Footy.com which I directed and produced. The idea was to bring a football influencer with a football coach and put him and his Dad through their paces.

Member Bio

I am a freelance director and creative producer based in Bristol. I’ve been directing branded content, commercials and short films for the past eight years and I am looking forward to getting my teeth stuck into new briefs here in Bristol. I am also a director with the company Creative Listening where I direct episodes of educational TV. I love bringing projects from the seed of an idea all the way to the final product, collaborating  with as many new voices as I can to bring fresh ideas to each new challenge. My commercials have been selected for the Young Arrows as well as the Berlin Commercial Awards and long listed for the Porsche Awards.

I also focus on writing and directing short films. My short “Last Drop” was screened at BAFTA Qualifying film festival, Aesthetica and is now streaming on Vidiverse, Directors Notes and Omeleto. ‘Out Of Time’ is streaming on Minute Shorts and my latest project ‘Spiral’ is screening at the BIFA qualifying Brighton Rocks Film Festival.

I was mentored on the Directors Uk Inspire Scheme by BAFTA winner Otto Bathurst where I learned the intricacies of directing a High End Television Drama.

I’m always open to collaborate on new projects and actively searching for brands who need online video content and TVC’s.
