Our short film āBye Bye Soundā is in the final stage of post-production!
With colour grading done and editing picture locked, the last steps are sound effects and captions - then itās off to film festivals worldwide before summer. Weāre almost there!
This film has been an incredible journey, and collaborating with such a talented team has been truly inspiring.
And as always, a massive thank you to everyone who supported and donated - this wouldnāt have been possible without you! š„
My short poetry film āScotland, Forgive Meā, produced through @solar_bear_theatre Solar Flares: Deaf Heritage, won āBest Short Filmā last night at the @partickfilmfestival šš„
It was also nominated for āBest Scottish Filmā and āBest Directorā.
Incredibly proud of this recognition, especially as a Deaf director & cinematographer, and so grateful to everyone who supported the film. Hopefully, this is another step forward for Deaf films on screen! š„

A beautiful screengrab from LockDoon, special thanks for the brilliant DoP work!
LockDoon is now available to watch on LumoTV. I wrote and directed this short film, and Iām so grateful to Mutt & Jeff Pictures and Lumo TV for making it happen.
The film was shot in Scotland and features a predominantly Scottish based and Deaf cast and crew, creating meaningful opportunities within the film industry. Itās a great balance of Deaf and hearing talent working together, something we absolutely need more of!
It was an absolute pleasure working with everyone. I learned so much from the team and developed both my skills and professional knowledge along the way.
Please give it a watch and drop a comment on the YouTube page if you enjoy it and supporting Deaf talent really matters, especially as we continue to push for more Deaf representation in Scotland, both on and behind the camera.

Wee Milo, our gentle Greyhound, passed away peacefully yesterday morning after bravely fighting his arthritis. You gave everything you had, every single day.
Though our hearts are truly broken, weāll always remember your calm presence, your wee coffee thefts, and the warmth you brought into our life. Thank you for letting us be part of your life ā weāll treasure it forever.
Run free now, wee man. May you and our wee Trudi be together again at the rainbow bridge ā¤ļøš

I was looking through old-ish photos from when I backpacked with @simplescottishlife across Cuba a couple of years agoā¦ and realised I still have thousands I havenāt edited yet. Hoping Iāll find time this summer, when Iām off work for a month, to finally go through them.
We travelled across the whole island - such a beautiful, unforgettable country, full of colour and soul. I hope to return one day.
Here are a few widescreen moments šØšŗ
