For my entire life, he has been there, educating me throughout the years on all things related to the natural world. Who knows, maybe he is even responsible for a big part of my personality; the animal loving part. His voice, the gentlest and most calming of sounds, has accompanied so many of the shows that I have enjoyed and loved. He is a giant of broacasting and a giant of humanity. In a world of Trumps and Farages, why can’t we all be a bit more Dave? Happy 100th Birthday Mr Attenborough, you utter and unequivocal legend.

On the set of Cold Fear again, this time fully working the magic of cinema by using miniatures. Mainstream cinema has largely left this creative and effective filmmaking method behind, but this can really amp up the production value on low budget Indy shoot, making something very simple look large scale and expensive! Great fun too! Keep ‘em peeled for more BTS from this shoot! #filmmakers #independentfilm #lowbudget #creative #onset

Here’s my 2026 showreel featuring lots of the different sorts of things I get up to across a year. Love that each day is different and that I get to travel this country and abroad doing this job! Many of you have been involved in lots of these projects and so I thank you for your support and back up. You know who you are! Big thanks though to the legends @loz_lekker and @cassellthebeatmaker for the music. It’s called 8 Coffees Deep. Check out more by them and others as part of the @itmpresents mentoring program. #director #filmmaker cameraop #editor #producer #creative

Busy, busy this week. That’s what we like! And as usual #variety is the spice of life! The end of 2025 is fast approaching! Looking forward to much more in 2026 and progressing further with my alien feature, working title ‘Joyride’. @cosa.nostra.films Thanks to @luciddreampix for the 2nd shot in there! #filmmaker #director #editor #producer #DoP #cameraoperator

Observing the creative process, bearing witness to the crafting of and then watching the finessing of the score for ‘Sorry’ by my good friend, talented composer, musician and musical director @nathanieldawe was an honour and a pleasure. Not the first time I’ve been in the room when he has shown his epic musical skills. We’ve worked together a lot over the last XX years (no need for that number!!), creating corporate work, musical theatre projects and of course as rap/funk duo Smokin’ Zone. As I said to him the other day, he is my John Williams (which makes me Spielberg!!) and I would love for him to do a lot more composing for film. He will composing for my feature, which is in pre-production now, but hit him up for your musical needs, whatever the project. You won’t regret it! Oh and today just happens to be his birthday!! Happy Birthday bro!! X #composer #musician #artist #creative #legend

Finally my short film ‘Sorry’ is public and available to watch (link in bio). Thank you to my amazing cast & crew who in typical indy style went above and beyond to make this one shot short film in just two days (day 1, rehearsal, day 2, shoot)! Please watch, share and pass it on. These talented people deserve your eyes for 10 mins! Thanks!

Wow. Cant believe it’s almost 2 years since this little reunion gig. Here’s a taster of backstage rehearsals, Smokin’ Zone in full live effect, plus a little taster of the show itself with a clip from our cover of Jump Around. Fun times. Never more fulfilled than when I was MCing! Big up my forever partner in rhyme @nathanieldawe and the magnificent talents of @jahturner @daveypea and our brass ensemble #mc #rapper #inthezone #live #band #fusion #rapfunkfusion

A week in pictures. From storyboards to Public Enemy to time spent in the edit suite.
