Stories We Tell Ourselves

I was lucky enough to have been offered the opportunity to work with the wonderful community arts charity Music And Theatre For All on multiple occasions. In this project, I helped to create a fly-on-the-wall style heart-felt mini-documentary, covering one of their beautiful community projects in which members of the local community in Lewisham work in collaboration with professional musicians and composers to create meaningful and community-rooted songs and performances.
COP27 Social Films
Samurai Productions | Online/Social | Cinematography/Edit
As part of the COP27 conference, I had the pleasure of working on a suite of social films for social media, as well as documenting the behind-the-scenes of a major virtual production film created for the conference. I also conducted interviews with the main talent from the flagship film, delivering content with targeted messaging around climate change and global climate policy.
I loved helping the team at Samurai Productions, providing Online Editing and colour grading post-production services on this epic travel documentary along side the AJ production team.
The Traveler is presented by the veteran globe trotter and professional jet setter Hazem Abuwatfa, along with the solid AJ production team lead by Senior Producer Ziead Jalal. This show takes the audience on an incredible journey from Johannesburg to capetown exploring some of South Africa’s most spectacular locations including the garden route.

Taipec Bubble Tea

After connecting with Taipec through my local community’s Facebook group, I was thrilled to help the UK’s largest Taiwanese food importer with their mission to help spread their traditional products and help bubble tea entrepreneurs establish their own businesses all across the country. I delivered a total of six films, all shot in one day at a sleek and cozy kitchen location. Needless to say, we had a blast, especially drinking all of the left-over boba!
Ida May Interiors

Approaching my partnership with Ida May, my approach was simple: make it personal. Whilst fancy and flashy visuals are nice to have, people don’t believe in those things. People believe in people. So, I focused on what inspired us: the personal and emotional journey of the woman behind the beautiful interior designs.
Tusk 2022 Awards Trailer
Fortemus Films/Tusk | Social/Awards | Edit
I was thrilled to have worked with Kennington Media group and Fortemus Films on a very important project: the Tusk 2022 awards.
I created a trailer celebrating Ian Craig and the work he is and has been doing for most of his life in Kenya: helping to preserve Rhino populations and supporting his local communities.
