The full trailer for “POULASTORE” out now!! Turn up your brightness! Very privileged to have been able to shoot this film. It’s not often your first film is a funded one and such a special story. Extremely pumped to have our official premiere at the Foyle Film Festival, an Oscar Qualifying festival. #Hollywood So many people helped me and backed me while shooting this. Also shoutout to Directors Ann Marie Kelly and Cabrini Cahill for your trust, friendship and craic. I can’t forget producer Mark Carreau for that fact I never had to worry about a single thing during this and pushing me to achieve my best. Thank you. Everyone listed here is a legend. Literal baby Jesus blessed me with you sexy fuckers.

Making movies lately, bts of what’s to come. Sign up to the waitlist in bio. Let’s be real if you’re the type to wait around for things to happen, this isn’t for you. Our drops aren’t for the ones who hesitate, second guess or look for the crowd to follow. They’re for the ones who want to stand out, who chase what’s different, and wear something not everyone else has. If you’re not on the wait list, it’s simple you’ll miss out. You’ll be stuck watching others rock pieces you wish you had, knowing you could’ve moved faster but didn’t. So here’s your chance, prove you’re not just another face in the crowd. Sign up, secure your spot, and be the one who leads not the one who watches. Because when we drop, we drop once and if you miss it? That’s on you.

Few pics from a crazy job I did before Christmas. Despite the fact it rained for the entire 10 weeks we filmed, somehow most of those are in sunshine. It was a tough one. Lots of blood, sweat and end boards. But big shout out to the crew that helped me all the way! Namely absolute legend and focus pulling master @briandungan1 . Legend No. 2 and always on the ball, he's some man @richdeering . @barrydoylem DIT, always there when we needed him (and he usually brought coffee!). Then there's Mr. Steadicam @johanph , with all the jokes, cinematography and a general Swedishness that you bring!
